It begins with an argument. A river of tears bursts its banks and washes the heroine away into a surreal world where symbols, references and personal experiences dance together. A baby learns to play the flute from a goose before becoming a girl and using the flute to drink up the river and swallow her teacher, the goose. A bone remains with which she draws herself a belly that gives birth to little creatures that suckle, swim, scream and explode and do all the other things that new-born babies do. In a pastel-coloured frenzy, the filmmaker traces the development from being an infant to an adult woman and artist.
The series features Ariol, a little blue donkey: his daily life as a schoolboy, his best friend, the little pig Ramono, his loves (Pétula, a pretty little cow with freckles), his collections (like the Chevalier Cheval's album or collectible cards), his holidays with his grandparents (Papi Atole and Mami Annette) ... as well as "Le Chevalier Cheval", a comic book and cartoon character.
A funny portrait of hair lovers. Seductions, disappointments, fantasies…
