A dark and reflective story of childhood with fairyland and the tricks of memory, gaps where grief and tragedy have ebbed in like the fairy ocean and hidden memories and reality is.. What part ? From a birthday party with no friends to a renter's suicide to monsters and the battles of children's fantasy and reality worlds.. And what is real.

A beautiful story with some children standing up for each other and battling the evils of the world. The tides; ebb and flow of tragedies and life as we grow up, live and the power of friendships.
