Synopsis

Ian and Pro, both 9 years old, are two friends living in the suburbs of Nairobi. Their dream is to become famous acrobats and travel around the world. One day, Steve, their superhero and charismatic trainer, announces that there will be an opportunity for some kids to travel and perform in Europe. Ian and Pro start training harder, hoping to be chosen. As the trip approaches, the tension between the friends increases, their self-esteem begins to waver, and a family tragedy seems to overshadow the children's dream. Will they find the strength to overcome everything and make their wish come true?
