A touching animated film, created by the creative association “Ekran,” tells the story of a boy who walked outside in the autumn and befriended fireflies. The plot is based on the fairy tale of the same name by Ovsei Driz. In the courtyard, not far from his house, the little boy was playing hopscotch and drawing various figures on the asphalt. Suddenly, white lights flew up to him and started playing with him... The film features music by Antonio Vivaldi from the “Four Seasons” cycle.
