Synopsis

 

What kind of life do instruments lead while they wait for their owners to play them again? A curious violin escapes her case and ventures out to the explore the world. She sees the sun, the clouds, the people around her. She feels the water, the air, and hears sounds she’s never heard before. And when she is lured by the heavenly smell of cupcakes, she bumps into someone familiar.
