 Anton is 10 years old. Anton s father was a jet fighter pilot who died in an accident. Anton s mother told Anton that his father is flying angels around in heaven. Anton is obsessed with aeroplanes (his bedroom is full of models and posters) and is (re-)building a full-size aeroplane in the Garage. He plans to use this aeroplane to fly up to his father. The film is about Anton coming to terms with his father s death and about friends, enemies and first love.
