The hummingbird meets for the first time the peacock. He finds him beautiful, majestuous and wish to become his friend.
Being small, he will try, by many imaginative manners, to get bigger and nicer to get attention of the peacock. But the peacock doesn't see all the hummingbird's efforts approvingly: he thinks that the hummingbird wants to compete with him and roughly rejects his friendship.
This unpleasant situation will permit to the hummingbird to be aware and to understand that the most important thing is to be confident in himself.
In a gentle way, André Dahan speaks the problem of the acceptance of the other.
