A made-for-TV silhouette-animation anthology, it weaves three fairy‑tale‑style stories. The plot is linked by interludes featuring a boy and a girl wandering an abandoned theatre, which serve as a whimsical frame. The stark black silhouettes against illuminated backdrops give the film a dreamlike, atmospheric quality.
