Patrick

A violin that Patrick buys from a peddler proves to be a very special instrument indeed. Each time that Patrick plays the violin, wonderous things happen. When Patrick plays by a pond, the fish display rainbow-colored bodies. When he plays in an apple orchard, the trees bloom with colorful fruits, cakes and ice cream. The film comes to a wonderful conclusion when Patrick plays his violin for a sickly tinker and his wife, who are healed immediately. Patrick, his violin, and all the brightly colored animals that the violin's music has magically transformed hop into the tinker's wagon, and all happily return to town.
