- Summary
- This animated film is the story of a sly and diabolical old man who waits for the inhabitants of a village to fall asleep, appraises the beauty of their dreams, and snatches them from the air. As the dreams of the villagers disappear, a mood of gloom envelops the town. The man hides each stolen dream in a box and opens a "Dream Supermarket." When a little girl, Sara, peeks into a box and discovers her own colorful dream, she helps the townspeople reclaim their own dreams.
