A haunting, otherworldly tale about a young boy (Gwyn) who lost his older sister Bethan in a snowstorm while looking for his lost ewe. His family hasn't been in the same since, and his birthday, the day in which she disappears, is a bittersweet time. His grandmother reveals to him that he has a strange talent for magic, but he has no idea how to fully unlock the gift. She gives him some odd gifts which he unleashes out into the world to get his sister back. A young girl who reminds him of his sister comes back, but she is changed.
