Two friends, an upcoming problem, the experience of failure, gaining a second chance, failing again, and then the wonderful surprising rescue by someone unknown!
We illude ourselves that there is some magic moment that will show up to help us. The theme of the script is about "trial and error". We try to reflect with this little film about this aspect of human learning, and the value of friendship in this learning process.
Our characters in the story are named CJ and Ralph. CJ has obviously a strong connection to ET and is desperately looking for his origins. Not finding them makes him skeptical about any adventures and troubles that his friend Ralph could draw him into. Ralph is a young horse pushing its limits. It is a real trouble seeker.
