A young lad is walking to school early one morning when he espies a red balloon tied to a lamppost. He shimmies up the pole and claims it for himself, before carrying on his journey amidst some local citizens - who really didn't look like they knew they were in the film. The balloon is almost as big as him, so getting it on the bus isn't allowed! No fear, he can run to school. His homeward journey sees him have some fun with those he meets in the rain along the streets of Paris before he gets it home, but his grandmother promptly releases it from the window. Maybe a sign of loyalty or fate, but it steadfastly refuses to abandon it's new owner, even when left to the elements. It's like a pet that follows and comes when called, they even play hide and seek, his schoolmates try to catch it, it even gets him into a bit of trouble with the church, it meets a blue balloon - it's even balloon-napped and they get separated which leads to an inevitable and quite sad conclusion. Or does it? It's really clever the way the balloon is manipulated - like it is remote controlled! There's also something engaging and joyous about the simplicity of this short feature. There's virtually no dialogue, a jolly and mischievous score that has something of the Disney to it, and the young Pascal Lamorisse really does charm with his performance as the easily pleased young man.
