For the first time in a long while, the father shows up at the kindergarten and, together with his son, turns a game of hide-and-seek from the teacher into a fantasy adventure — spinning tales of dragons, portals, and magical worlds. When the mother arrives, the father tries to explain himself, but his words no longer hold any weight with her. Resigned, he asks for five minutes to say goodbye and tells his son he must fly off to another world for twenty years to preserve their magic. In the boy’s memory, his father transforms into a massive dragon — soaring up to the ceiling and flying away through a drawn door. All that remains is a toy: a plastic dragon with a broken wing.
