In the entrails of the earth, we find a civilisation that has never seen the sun. They live in the heart of a bottomless mine, the small community works night and day to extract the parcels of gold and light in the depths. Without fail, they toil in the dusty galleries with no desire to get out. What could be better outside? The mine, it’s their home, that’s all they know. The canary sings, the wheel turns, the charcoal goes up, the cart goes down. However, Icare dreams of better. His nose is turned upwards, he seeks the sun. Like a bird in a cage, he tries to escape using clever tricks. Will he manage to find the exit?
After
many months locked down in our own darkness, Charcoal invites us to
strive towards the light : to dare to dream of flying to an
adventure full of sunshine and possibilities. Join Icare, Aurore,
Dédale and their friends to live an adventure filled with emotions,
surprises and magic.
