     Brana's dissatisfaction with the drawing he showed at school created a Lion, who sets off on an adventure of real life. The world in which Lion finds himself, with its illusion and seeming magic, tempts Lion to go from one adventure to another. On the one hand, Lion is in a world that surrounds and suffocates him, but on the other hand, it offers him the opportunity to be accepted and to enjoy all the beautiful things that this world can offer him.

     The scary Lion are all of us, the children we need to keep inside us. The art in us is a part of our personality that we must cherish, because each of us is silly, imaginative and unusual in our own way. Our "strange things" are the most beautiful thing about human existence.
