SYNOPSIS
The little girl Maj lives with her uncle Sonny who is a tattooist. Although they have a great relationship, they always talk about finding a real family for Maj, consisting of a caring mother, a good father and a funny big brother – just like the families on TV. Accidently, Maj ends up tattooing a tough guy from the local motorcycle club with children’s drawings, and consequently Maj and Sonny have to flee town. This sets off an adventurous road trip through a magical forest with flying fairies, a funny circus family and their big cuddly tiger. And Maj starts to wonder if Uncle Sonny isn’t her perfect family after all.
