When Iris, 10, sees a strange boy in a rainbow suit fall from the sky, this is the beginning of her greatest adventure. Named Arco, the boy comes from the future where people live in harmony with nature and use rainbows to travel through time. Iris, who spends most of her time with a robot nanny and communicates with her parents via hologram calls, sets off with Arco to get him back home. On their journey, they find a world where people have forgotten about genuine connections, miracles, and imagination—but also a way to rediscover them.

A poignant, visually captivating animated adventure about friendship, courage, and the power of imagination, Arco reminds us that hope keeps shining like a rainbow after a storm.
