* Based on Adios, Josefina (Goodbye, Josephine) by Jose Maria Sanchez-Silva.

Santi is a shy Spanish boy who keeps a tiny whale in a bowl, invisible to everyone but him. The whale, named Josephina, is able to alter her size and fly; she takes Santi on many dreamlike adventures and helps him confront the challenges during his childhood. However, things change as Santi starts taking interest in the outside world and gets to know his distant father.
