Raffi is a small boy who likes playing football and wearing sports jerseys. But he doesn’t just love sports, he also loves his favourite doll and his pink tutu.

But with the support of his parents, he takes courage and the other children realise that “being different” doesn’t mean anything bad. On the contrary: it makes you something special!
