THE LITTLE PRINCE

Synopsis
An eccentric old Aviator and his new neighbour, a young girl who moves in to the house next door with her mother. Through the pages of the Aviator’s book and his drawings, the Little Girl learns the story of how he long ago crashed in a desert and met the Little Prince, an enigmatic boy from a distant planet.
