농아(聾兒)인 소년은 자연과 특별한 관계를 가지고 있다.
부모님과 기차여행을 즐기는 소년은 시원한 바람과 자연의 경치, 식물과 동물, 나무, 새들, 그리고 무엇보다 개미에게 흥미를 가진다.
소년은 자연을 여행하고자 하는 욕구를 표현하지만 소년의 아버지는 심드렁하다. 결국, 소년은 망원경을 쓰고 자연을 바라본다.
망원경을 통해 보는 동안 바람에 날린 개미 가족이 강으로 떨어지고 창문 너머 기차 안으로 들어와 아버지의 얼굴에 떨어지는 모습을 보게 된다.
소년은 아버지에 의해 개미 가족이 죽는 것을 막고 개미 가족과 하나가 되며 말보다는 사랑의 언어를 이해하기에 이른다.
The film is an insight into the world of a boy who is a daydreamer.
He is deaf and mute and has a special relationship with nature.
On a train journey with his parents he enjoys the cool breeze blowing on to his face, the natural scenic environment, flora and fauna, the tress, the birds, and last but not the least the ants.
He expresses his desire of doing a trip in nature, which he expresses to his mother, but the idea does not seem to appeal to his father.
Eventually he again turns up to nature only this time equipped with binoculars. While he looks out through the binoculars he sees a family of ants a mother,
a father and their child resting on the tree leaves, when suddenly the wind blows them to the river and then through the window, into the train,
right onto the face of his father. He saves the ant family from being crushed by his father and ends up being friends with the ant family,
more so because they also understand the language of love and not words.
He offers them food and they cling to the hand of the boy, which eventually zooms out to show the boy and his family in the hands of a larger benefactor.
