It’s a hot summer’s day in Berlin. School is closed. Two bored sisters hang around at home in their stuffy apartment. Sophia is reading and doesn’t want to be disturbed, her little sister Malin tries to get her attention. She’s left her cuddly toy penguin Pomito at school! With the help of lots of imagination, the two girls send the stuffed animal on a journey out of the empty school building to the real penguins in the zoo.
