Synopsis

Nena is a boy full of curiosity and imagination, who loves to explore enigmatic places such as hills, mountains, rivers, and forests. One day, he notices that in the chapel that the residents of Valley of Dreams usually attend, the candles never stay lit. Intrigued by this mystery, Nena decides to investigate further and ends up encountering an enchanted universe where candles refuse to light, no matter how hard one tries. Thus, he embarks on a journey full of challenges and discoveries, learning valuable lessons about courage, friendship, and the importance of having faith in oneself.

However, the chapel without candles in the Valley of Dreams is the only one that holds something beyond dust and silence. With no candles inside, the darkness hides mysteries that no one can unravel. When Nena decides to investigate, he keeps everything secret, even in the face of his fear. He uncovers dark secrets that link the disappearance of a priest decades ago to strange occurrences that still torment the inhabitants of the region. Amid legends, forgotten memories, and a dark truth, Nena will have to face the unknown and illuminate a chapel plunged into darkness.
