Bell Boy

Supavit Nummelin is a 27 year old young man, who lives in the Finnish countryside by himself, along with over 1800 church bells; his greatest interest.
The source of his 20 year old obsession with church bells started out with a small miniature world he built in his childhood home with his Finnish adoptive father. The miniature world served as a blueprint of his future dreams of building big bell towers and forging church bells, as well as giving him room to dream about other such radical endeavours, while also functioning as an escape from his struggles of not fitting in.
Now he is preparing to bring more of his long time dreams into the real world. As he is attempting to play church bells on a hot air balloon, as well as starring as the main organ player in an upcoming church concert.
