What is Shine Moon Shine about?

On a snowy night, the moon falls from the sky and lands on a tall city building. The neighbours try everything to send it back, but the moon refuses to rise. While everyone else gives up, a kind boy named Ata stays beside it. The moon confesses that the dark sky feels lonely. Ata tries to cheer it up, but nothing works until he has a bright idea. With courage, kindness and imagination, he helps the moon find its way home.
