“How to make someone smile?”
Ten year old Lily has to play multiple roles at once, facing the questions of the adult world. It is often the children who know how to live life without making it overly complicated and see that the key to happiness lies in simplicity – whether it's the first rays of sunshine, a hug from a loved one, or a snowball fight.
