Abu Raed is an old airport janitor who has always yearned to travel the world but has never been able to afford it.

Through imaginary tales, a friendship forms, and Abu Raed is soon faced with the grim realities of the children's home life. Thus he takes it upon himself to make a difference in their lives.
