TOTO
STNOPSIS
A story
of a sensitive boy, raised by a lonely and hard working mother
somewhere in a far province, where life revolves around daily,
inveterate habits. The young protagonist is being deceitfully seduced
by a shady “master” and cynical collector of keys. In
consequence of the mystery and rather incomprehensible events, the
world of his unconcerned childhood falls apart. The boy gets lost on
his way back home while his concerned mother embarks upon a desperate
attempt to find her little son.
SHORT SYNOPSIS
“Toto”, a
kaleidoscope of events filled to the brim with suspense and awe, is an
universal story of naivete and irreversibly lost infant dreams.
If we lack the word to name the phenomenon, we don’t know
precisely what happened.
