A fairy tale about the need for human happiness. The Fortune fairy is celebrating her birthday and decides to present humans with a pair of galoshes which make wishes come true.

Only after seeing the unhappy fate of those presented with the magic shoes the fairy learns that happiness cannot be granted; it must be earned. (official distributor synopsis)
