This is the story of a little bear and his journey with grief after losing his dad to suicide.
Amidst his feelings of anger, sadness, abandonment and fear, he struggles to understand himself and pushes the people around him away.

Willow has a very busy mind and when the voices become too much for him, he packs up his belongings along with his pet caterpillar in search of belonging.
Leaving his family behind, he follows the light of the moon and soon finds himself in a deep dark forest where he meets a group of forest friends and embarks upon a new journey of self-discovery and acceptance.
