Two intrepid sisters, Juliette (4) and Carmen (8), discover a passage that leads to the extraordinary world of their favorite book, the Kingdom of the Air Streams. Transformed into cats and separated from each other, the girls will have to be bold and daring to find their way back to each other and, with the help of a singer called Selma, to their real world. Their greatest fear is confronting Sirocco, the master of winds and storms - but is he as terrifying as everyone thinks? Visually stunning, this animation will beguile.
