At the top of the highest mountain grows a magical flower that radiates eternal light. Little mouse Yuku wants to get it for his grandmother, who is slowly fading away. His journey is long and full of obstacles. Thanks to his ukulele and the songs he sings, Yuku makes many friends, which turns out to be the most important and precious thing in this adventure. This is an extraordinary animation for audiences of all ages.
