A pilot stranded in the desert meets a boy from a tiny asteroid who misses the vain rose he left behind. A fox teaches him that love means taming, then a snake sends him home, leaving the pilot alone with the memory.

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.
The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
