Celebration of Flight

At the age of 78, Daniel Rundstroem wants to build his own plane in the middle of the tropical forest on Dominica, an island paradise in the Caribbean. The film chronicles the unique friendship that develops between the elderly Swede and a 16-year-old Caribbean boy. They share one desire for which they are willing to sacrifice everything: to develop and build their very own aircraft. With it, they are planning to compete in Florida for a prize in one of the world’s biggest air shows.
