SYNOPSIS Carol belongs to the third generation of fairground workers. Her teenage daughter, Marina, always accompanies her on vacation. Her daughter is upset and angry with everyone, except her friends. Carol tries to teach her daughter the secrets of cotton candy making, but Marina doesn't want to follow the family tradition and will stand up to anyone who tells her what to do, even though she doesn't yet know a big secret the family keeps.
