“My dear child, be kind and affectionate, and the Lord will always help you, and I will look at you from heaven and will always be near you”
Somewhere in the depths of an old house, playing children find forgotten dolls, bring them to life, and, living together with them in the life of fairy-tale characters, search for answers to the main questions of life. From a children's game, a magical fairy tale is born and opens up to them (and to the viewers) the sources of the true miracle – love, the strength of the spirit, and the belief in the best. The story of Cinderella and the prince becomes close and meaningful, the story of overcoming obstacles serves as a source of strength.
