Overview

Eleven-year-old Sam is secretly starting to question their gender identity and is finding it difficult to express how they feel. But one night, while ritualistically caressing their older sister's dress, a fearless urban fox jumps through the window and steals it. Trying desperately to retrieve it out of fear of being caught, Sam is lead on a wild goose chase through the family home and into the dark attic.

When they eventually fumble around and find the light switch, they realise that there is much more to this mysterious fox than Sam could’ve ever dreamed of. The unlikely duo embark on a magical musical journey to discover the surprising things they might have in common, and how to celebrate the ways in which they differ. Part of the #FiveFilmsForFreedom 2025 programme, presented in partnership with British Council.
