The story is based on the award winning animated film Lord of the Sky created by Ludmila Zeman and produced by the National Film Board of Canada.

Set in beautiful British Columbia in a native village, human carelessness leads to an environmental tragedy – loss of the sun. A little boy’s bravery saves the village and reminds us that the environment is fragile and we must care for it.
