La trama segue fedelmente la nota fiaba di Collodi. Pinocchio geme miracolosamente sotto la pialla di Geppetto e vediamo il burattino svincolarsi dalle mani del suo autore e padre, iniziando il pellegrinaggio per il mondo. Ci sono tutti i personaggi collodiani: il grillo parlante, Mangiafuoco, il gatto e la volpe, la Fatina azzurra, Lucignolo, il gatto e la volpe. Per sottrarsi al pericolo d'esser arrostito con la salvia, Pinocchio si getta in mare e finisce nello stomaco del mostro marino, dove trova Geppetto. Insieme fuggono, approfittando del sonno del mostro. Pinocchio nuotando valorosamente porta in salvo Geppetto, poi si mette a lavorare per poter curare il suo babbino ormai vecchio e infermo. Pinocchio non è più un burattino stravagante e discolo: c'è già in lui, in embrione, un onest'uomo. In altre parole è diventato un bravo ragazzo, tal quale ce lo mostra la fatina dagli occhi azzurri con un colpo della sua bacchetta magica.

"These portraits are encounters I wanted to be kept from oblivion, even if it is only while you are watching them. They are women who work, who have children, and who, at the same time, keep their independence of mind. I shot 24 portraits of 13 minutes each. I have chosen this short running time for several reasons: not becoming a bother, escape tv adds cuts, shoot the movie quickly, in one pace and without too many scratches. I am not a documentaries maker. I am more like a faces, hands and things lover. To show reality is not my goal. “Reality” is just a word, just like its twin sister “fiction”, which I practice as well, but with a different delight." (Alain Cavalier)
