In 2075, a ten-year-old girl named Iris sees a mysterious boy wearing an rainbow-coloured suit fall from the sky. His name is Arco. He comes from a distant and idyllic future where time travel is possible. Iris welcomes him and does everything she can to help him return home. Blending the wonder of science fiction with poetic sensitivity, Arco tells a story of friendship, the future, and the desire to care for one another.
