The film focuses on the sometimes distant but generally warm relationship between a puppeteer who runs a puppet theater and lives in the same place, and his daughter. In the film, Karla is portrayed as a young girl contemplating what she wants to be in life and striving to understand the meaning of happiness, while the puppet master is depicted as a lonely father struggling to write his next theater play and simultaneously caring for his daughter. This story of feeling lost and Karla's efforts to explore her surroundings and life bring the father and daughter together in a story that explains the meaning of happiness. However, Karla will have to grasp the seriousness of life much sooner than she expected—and perhaps even sooner than she wanted.
