Eight-year-old Pottan is about to spend her summer at a camp on a pony farm. However, there is not a pony in sight when her busy parents drop her off. Instead, Pottan finds herself at a recycling plant, where quirky characters such as the old tinkerer Ture are shuffling about. Soon, while riding on the back of a forklift truck, she is introduced to madcap plant boss Rydberg. Together they hatch a secret plan for a space mission – fly high up to the sky is what they want! Well-known puppeteer Petter Lennstrand has captivated Swedish TV audiences for years. Now his marvellously unconventional style has finally made it onto the big screens around the world.
