Christmas is just around the corner in the little village Borington and everyone is preparing for the holidays – everyone except for eleven-year-old refugee Sara. Afraid of having to leave the country, she constantly hides from the police and takes refuge in a vacant house. There she has an incredible encounter: a shy animal has lost its way and crashes into the very same house. She can hardly believe her own eyes when she realizes – it is a dragon.
In the house next door lives the aspiring young YouTube star Mortimer who has to feed the fish when his neighbor is on vacation. So, one day the boy ends up discovering Sara and the dragon. Can the three outsiders overcome their fears and team up?
