An eight years old child has lost his father. Grieving at his grave, a butterfly draws his attention. The child runs after him, but in the hunt they both fall into a lake. The child saves the butterfly from drowning. At all costs he fights to keep his new friend LouLou alive. Finally he succeeds but then LouLou announces he has to leave...
LouLou is an adventurous story where there is both room for a tear and a smile. It's a story about dealing with death and saying goodbye. With 'LouLou' we want to make a film for children who can use support and explanation during the disturbing times after the loss. It can help to discuss the complex time. We hope 'LouLou' can comfort and help them to find their way back to life.
