"What are we, Papa?" the toy mouse child asked his father.
"I don't know," the father answered. "We must wait and see."
A tin father and son dance under a Christmas tree until they break ancient clock-work rules and are themselves broken. Discarded, rescued, repaired by a tramp, they quest for dream of a family and a place of their own - magnificent doll house, plush elephant, and tin seal remembered from a toy shop.
