Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, author of bestseller “The Little Prince”, was a World War II pilot who disappeared during a flight in 1944, never to be found.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s "The Little Prince" has been on the bestseller lists for more than 70 years. "The Little Prince", in French "Le Petit Prince", has been translated into more than 200 languages and is, after the Bible, the most widely read book in the world. The aviator's life and literary work have been transfigured into legend. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry disappeared during one of his last assigned reconnaissance missions in Southern France in 1944. But who was this supposed hero, who came from old nobility in France, lived unconventionally, conquered the hearts of the women and enchanted the world with the humanism in his books like "The Little Prince"? Who was Saint-Exupéry? We meet Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's airplane mechanic, biographer, an aviation artist, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's godson, his great nephew, a fisherman and a diver - as well as a young reader. They all turn out to be fans and staunch admirers of the great Saint-Ex, as his friends called him. A man, a book, a life story - and just maybe the search for the lost happiness of childhood. The documentary traces the life of the world-famous French author and pilot.
