Oscar comes to light on a stormy night, in the hospital of a small town, and immediately we understand that there is something extraordinary about him : he does not obey the law of gravity. He floats in the air, hovers in the lightest breeze like a balloon, in front of the incredulous look of the mother and grandmother. The child grows closely protected and sheltered - with only one friend, a little girl called Agata who knows his secret. When nosy neighbours cause the police to step in and request that Oscar be sent to school with all the other children, the two women decide to move to a remote village to keep him safe. Surrounded by books, Oscar grows up in this little village until the day he decides that the whole world must know who he really is. He is "The Man without Gravity" .
