Little Allan lives with his father in a dreary apartment block inhabited by an assortment of odd people. His best friend is an old man living in the same block though never leaving the house. Nonetheless, Allan becomes involved in some pretty unpredictable adventures including UFOs, doppelgängers and lots of quirky characters.
One day, out of the blue, the alien Majken with her close-set eyes and a robotic sounding voice shows up in her UFO. Majken has lost her monkey wrench and can’t get home without it, and what started out as a boring summer holiday suddenly becomes something much more
dramatic and dangerous. Because it is almost certain that the wrench has been stolen by the mysterious janitor, and that he is now hiding it in the dark basement. But Majken has to get home and Little Allan decides to help.
Little Allan is a poetic, melancholic and life-affirming story about a boy trying to find his way in life.
