MIRIAM'S BALLOONS is the first film to portray Atropos, the Angel of Death, as a little girl who sees human souls as colorful balloons she must sever from the dying. She is alone for eternity, that is, until she meets Miriam, a young terminally ill cancer patient who is unafraid of death and befriends her. But when forced to take Miriam’s last balloon, Atropos must abandon her innocence and make a fateful choice.
