The Locksmith's Song

OVERVIEW

  • Synopsis

    An old locksmith brings us back to when he was a boy. It was a time of adventure and challenge, when birds nested in old women's beards and young knights battled Ethor the great dragon. We follow the young boy as he faces his greatest challenge yet! All he must do is unlock a door and walk through it. A simple task you might think, but behind this door his sick mother lies and try as he might, he cannot face her. Only when he realises that the key to the door is in his heart, does he overcome his fear and help his mother.
