Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Orlando and Lyse's is a fairy tale, a modern tale of an old man and a little girl who, unwittingly, find themselves facing the present together and the choices it brings, despite their being as distant as the rural life of a small inland village and the metropolitan life of a large European city can be.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
