“Lumi” is a short film created by Big Boom. It presents a little adventure of a cute animated character. The cute character (Lumi) has bright and round eyes. He discovers the world around him with every step he takes. Lumi is deeply impressed by the starry sky at night and stares at them with increasing curiosity, until the darkness brings to life GriGro, a strange creature that grows out of control in the absence of light. The film ends in an optimistic and funny note.
