Synopsis

Because his mother has to leave the country to attend his father who got injured while working overseas, Dou Dou, a five-year-boy, must go to a small town on the coast and spend his summer vacation with his grandma, whom he has never met. His fear of the fishing village where his grandma lives is only surpassed by the old woman’s house itself, a traditional country dwelling of San-ho-yuan, which is home to strange things. It turns out that his grandma has “magic” and communicates with to the underworld. Getting along with grandma, Dou Dou enters the world of folk customs and beliefs of rural Taiwan. In the end, he regrets making a deal with a demon-possessed cat to sell his grandma to the demons and has to rescue her to whom he has become deeply attached.
