A boy chooses flowers over orchestra, loses everything, and wakes into a world where that choice means something. The film moves at the speed of a dream, letting color and music do the talking while Michael learns that being gentle and useless are not the same thing. Nobody remembers this one exists, but it's built for anyone who has ever felt wrong for wanting the soft things.
Michael is a gentle, gifted boy who plays the oboe and loves tending the flowers in the greenhouse at his music school, even playing for them. His gardening keeps making him late for orchestra practice, and he is eventually dismissed from the school. That same night, after he falls asleep, a delicate Flower Fairy named Florence wakes him and leads him on an enchanted journey to a land where flowers come alive, treble notes cause mischief, and adventure waits. There, Michael begins to see that his love of flowers and his dream of becoming a great musician can work together, helping him find focus and discover who he is. A 1985 fantasy film, it blends adventure, drama, romance and music.
