Synopsis

City boy trades vegetables for magical seed that grows into a planet in his pot.

A young boy, tired of the city, escapes into the country. When trying to bring vegetables to the market to sell, his cart breaks down and he exchanges the vegetables for a mystical seed. Returning home he plants the seed in a normal pot—only to find it growing into a planet. (Source: ANN)
