Synopsis

Synopsis

Astronomy meets music in a poetic tale. Our time on Earth is fleeting when we compare it to the lifespan of a star, which can be counted in billions of years. But human life bears a greatness of another nature. We can love, give birth to children, learn to play music, laugh and dream.
