Synopsis
When a little boy has nightmares, his parents talks with him about fear. That's how they tell the story of their childhood: when an over protected girl-princess (the mother) lived locked up in the house-castle, and a boy, the son of the maid at the house-castle (the father) had to spend all day alone. After meeting the boy on the outer wall of the castle and getting a taste of freedom, the princess relinquishes her crown and escapes into a dream. There she meets the boy once more. Together they find the courage to face their greatest fears.
