A toddler boy gets his first pair of shoes, and from then on, he can choose his own path. The boy gradually realizes what he wants and what he likes. Later, he discovers an invisible pebble in his shoe, which reminds him whenever he strays from his inner path. Slowly, the boy grows up. When he falls in love, his shoes seem to grow wings, becoming incredibly light; in the barracks, when he becomes a number, the pebble rages inside his shoe. The shoes witness his every step, sharing every joy and sorrow with him, while the invisible pebble keeps him true to his inner self. Time flies by, and the boy becomes a father, then a grandfather. One day, he returns to the town where he grew up, buys a pair of shoes, and gives them to his grandson...\u003cbr\u003eThis seemingly simple story is full of metaphors.
