OPAL DREAMS
synopsis
Pobby and Dingan are invisible. They live in Lightning Ridge, the opal capital of Australia, and are friends with Kellyanne. When Pobby and Dingan suddenly disappear, Kellyanne develops a mysterious illness and her big brother Ashmol, in an uncharacteristic display of affection, recruits the local community to help find these "missing persons". This journey becomes a rite of passage, not only for Ashmol but for the whole town. Together they discover that you don't always need to see to believe.
