It's the story which miraculously unraveled to me during the summer. It follows the musical storyline I was delivered that time.
It starts when we see a mish-mash bird „sleeping“in ship model workshops. A passing by match-character wakes him up and soon after the bird finds himself overwhelmed with the surrounding, not fully satisfied he continues on exploring the place: jumps out of the workshops to the outer world. There, to he is struck with the beauty of a little island in the lake. The island has something so attractive to the bird, he can‘t help himself but try do anything to reach it.
So he tries to swim there (surely, since he is made out of ship parts) . But in fact there are lots of holes and as he also realizes, he isn't constructed perfectly to funtion, he sinks.
Disappointed and he gives up while still looking towards the island dreamily … Match-character constant accompanier, struck with an idea, jumps onto the bird, opens something in his chest and Ivan pops open into a sky lantern!
Match matches the fire inside Ivan, and gasses start lifting Ivan to the. And then with little effort of his own, in short time the wondrous island is reached.
The metaphorical story tells about looking into the world, having dreams then trying to reach them. And that often means also looking wor ways to reach it, for changing (improoving) yourself . If you take the challanges, the reword is always there. And perhaps most importantly that everything best was already there and waiting inside .
I really feel passionate to express this one. We'll see how it goes.
