*Petite Plume* tells the story of a little girl who rediscovers her roots through a resilient and poetic quest.
After years of unhappiness away from her family, a little girl returns to live with her grandparents, in the heart of her ancestral home. In this haven of tenderness, she learns to listen to the silence and the cycles of nature, and discovers ancestral rituals. However, her past still haunts her dreams in the form of a painful memory.
Inspired by her grandmother’s mysterious tales and protected by a totem bird, Petite Plume embarks on an inner journey to break free from her own prisons. Will she succeed in protecting her world from those who want to take everything for themselves?
