Flight of the Red Balloon
2007・Taiwan・France・116 minutes
Suzanne, a drama professor who is busy with work and daily chores, hired Song Fang, a Chinese film student in Paris, to be a nanny to take care of her 7-year-old son Simon. One day, Simon found a red balloon that was alone and asked Song Fang to follow the red balloon around the streets of Paris. Song Fang took out her camera and shot a movie. The red balloon stopped occasionally, sometimes coming to the window of Suzanne's house, sometimes floating over the Seine River, Notre Dame, Musée d'Orsay, Montmartre, and finally slowly flying into the sky.
