On the night of their moving day, five-year-old Yan is sleeping restfully in her cosy bed. Suddenly, she is interrupted by a cast of shadows moving frantically across her room which frightens her deeply. She hurries out of her bed to switch the light on, only to discover that there is nothing in sight.
