A simple story set in the present day about a family struggling to cope with the needs of a child handicapped with Down's syndrome. Voyta's parents just want him to live like any other healthy child, but this is not easy for Voyta nor his parents. On top of that, his twelve-year-old sister struggles to find the best way to treat him, and must also deal with her friends' and schoolmates' awkward reactions when confronted with a child who is different from everybody else.
