A Lucia procession is on a tour of the city, and the final stop is a factory. The factory is on a deserted industrial estate and appears to be closed and dark. The young people in the procession start getting nervous, but a janitor appears to take them on a tour of the factory. On the tour they meet a variety of people who all have odd professions: there’s a dream collector, a rhyme-smith, an inventor ... As the tour continues, the glitzier their physical surroundings become, but the mood remains gloomy.
What kind of factory have they ended up in? Can their songs fix what seems to have gone wrong there?
