Sometimes colours just choose you, as Malik says to a woman who asks why he chose yellow Converse shoes. But Malik hasn’t actually chosen anything. An introverted young man, he is usually to be found in his bedroom, listening to vinyl records and solving his Rubik's cube. His routine is disrupted when he discovers an imaginary friend living in a pair of Converse shoes found in the basket of laundry the maid delivers to his door. The shoes nag at him to get out of his room, force him on to a bicycle and then introduce him to the local nightlife. It is a journey that will challenge his fears and broaden his horizons.
