Synopsis

Danielle can draw amazing things, fantastic things, odd and wonderful things. But her father is worried. Selling his photographs provides only a meager income, and of what practical use are strange drawings, no matter how pretty? Danielle tries, but she just can’t help drawing the world her way. Finally, one fateful day, she manages to find the road to her future, a path full of her fanciful creatures.
