Balloonacy's one human character, the Old Man, lives alone in a small apartment in Paris. It is his birthday, but he has gotten out of the habit of speaking, probably because he hasn't anyone to speak to. He seems to have forgotten joy - how to play and interact with others. His life is rather staid and sad, and he is resigned to this. But soon an insistent red balloon floats through his window and ultimately, breaks through his reserve. In contrast to the Old Man, the balloon is boisterous, playful and lighthearted, and it soon charms the Old Man.
Balloonacy is a delightful romp of friendship, surprise, joy and improvisation.
