Adaptation of a social tale by Jiri Wolker - a classical piece of Czech animated cinematography. A millionaire who owns a whole town, its factories and workers, falls ill. The surgeons tell him that sunshine is the only cure for him. The millionaire orders the sun to be taken down from the sky and put in a metal enclosure to shine only for himself. However, when he closes himself with the sun in the enclosure, he dies due to the sunshine. The enclosure falls apart and the sun runs down the hill to the town. A girl finds it, puts it on her toy-cart and takes it back to the sky to shine for everybody. (official distributor synopsis)
