After she moves in with her grandmother, a mysterious passage she discovers will change recently orphaned Rüya’s life. While trying to save money to move to Italy like she dreams, Rüya won’t be able to tell whether the world she tries to run away from or the world she gets lost in the fantasy forest is more dangerous. To achieve her dreams, Rüya has to fulfil the tasks given by the natives of the fantasy forest while she has to overcome the obstacles set by her grandmother.
