In a park, David, a young Jewish medicine student, who has recently lost his father, remembers the wise words of Anne Frank he left him: look at all the beautiful things that surround you and be happy by making others happy. But when David’s terrible fear of dogs makes him run into a new area of the park, he discovers or does he dream? a beautiful desperate princess. She’s inconsolable because of a terrible message she got about her fiancé. And yet the sun is shining and David would love to make her laugh, to provoke a break in her sorrow for a few moments. But while he trusts easily people, the princess has been raised in a world of mistrust towards others and his envy to interfere with her life, will bring him in such an awkward situation that he only ends up to meet his goal, in despite of himself.
