A tightly produced and enjoyable story about the effect that a balloon hat maker has on people of a variety of cultures. Well told and engaging, the piece talks about how balloons have an amazing ability to connect with people in ways that cross cultural barriers. Through interviews with a variety of people on the street, we find how much fun the art of making balloon hats is, and how much the balloon maker wants to pass along this knowledge to others. It’s a very imaginative and whimsical piece, and would fit in well with a magazine format.
