Storyline
11-year-old Tony has a unique feature he was born with - he glows. He spends his days at home in his blanket bunker and dreams about having a friend. Before Christmas, a peculiar girl named Shelly moves into his house and turns his world upside down. Together, they embark on an adventurous search for the origin of the mysterious tufts of darkness which suck the sunshine out of their house.
Tony is wasting away at home. His controlling parents want to protect him mostly because, once he takes off his mask and gloves, he glows. But his new friend, Shelly, doesn't seem to mind it at all, as their house is shrouded in darkness.
