What if your best friend was the only one who could help you shine through the darkness?
Tony is a lonely boy kept cooped up at home by his overprotective parents who try to hide what makes him different: he glows like a light. At Christmastime, he makes friends with his new neighbor Shelly, who has her own magic in the form of a flashlight with a beam that reveals magical worlds. When a mystical darkness begins to overtake their building and their parents stand in the way of their budding friendship, they will have to rely on each other to bring the light back to their home.
