Ollie lives in a busy city with her parents and half-sister Nim, who has Down’s syndrome. While Ollie loves Nim, it often feels like a responsibility looking out for her. On the way to a family party, everything seems to be going wrong. The sisters plan to perform Nim’s favourite song at their grandmother’s birthday, but Nim panics about her forgotten elephant headband, she runs into the woods, and Ollie chases after her.
In the woods they face enchanting challengers and Ollie learns that she doesn’t have to do everything by herself - sometimes she can follow Nim’s lead.
