The Red Balloon
Movie • 1956 • Comedy
ReportSynopsis
In this deceptively simple, nearly wordless tale, a young boy discovers a stray balloon, which seems to have a mind of its own, on the streets of Paris. The two become inseparable, yet the world’s harsh realities finally interfere. With its glorious palette and allegorical purity, this Academy Award-winning short film has enchanted young and old for generations.

Most of the second half of the film is the threat of the balloon being destroyed. It eventually is.
