The central character in the play is 10-year-old Eia, who is forced to spend her Christmas holidays on a remote farm in the woods instead of being with her family. At first, the idea seems boring, but she soon discovers that the place is full of secrets. Eia meets new friends and learns about an ancient forest, which is threatened with destruction. So she decides to protect the forest and its rare animals, including a mysterious ghost owl. As she delves into the history of the farm and the forest, family secrets are revealed that change her life.
