Vitus is an extremely bright boy, so much so he seems to be from another planet. He has the ears of a bat, plays the piano like a virtuoso and has browsed through encyclopedias since the age of five. His parents expect a brilliant future for him. They are hoping he will be a distinguished pianist. The little genius, however, would much rather spend his time with his eccentric grandfather in his workshop, building gliders. Flying in one of these devices, a dramatic leap is to bring Vitus control over his own life. Vitus has been indicated by Switzerland to compete for the 2007 Foreign Film Oscar Award.
