'One night, a lonely young fisherman comes across a group of magical creatures dancing in the moonlight. They are selkies - seals who can shed their skins on land. He takes one of their skins and, as she cannot return to the sea, the selkie girl has to go home to live with him. But he has a lesson to learn about love ...'
