A 12-year-old girl named Sun discovers that the story of ‘the little ostrich boy lost in the desert’—which her grandfather has been telling her since she was a child—is not a fairy tale, but a true story. Faced with this mystery and desperate for answers, she sets off into the Sahara Desert in search of the truth: who was her grandfather really, and who was that little boy?

Defiant feminist statement? Nihilistic, avant-garde comedy? Daisies remains a fascinating cinematic rollercoaster. Remarkable and refreshingly uncompromising, it continues to provoke, stimulate and entertain.
