The concept

At the end of a long and extraordinary journey through distant countries, on the wings of fantasy and an impetuous wind, a hot-air balloon stops its expedition among the branches of the trees. In the clash the basket overturns and, like a cornucopia, spreads its precious cargo of fruits and vegetables from all over the world.
