In a small village in the early 20th century, a group of orphaned children lives in an orphanage run by the strict Sister Agnes, who has a heart of stone and does not allow the little ones to experience any joy. One day, a boy named Timmy, filled with dreams and longing, decides that what they need most is a loving grandmother to give them love and sweets. With the support of his friends, they come up with a mischievous plan to find the perfect grandmother.
The children begin their search in the village, asking neighbors and roaming the markets, but each attempt turns out to be a hilarious disaster. From the failed attempt to convince old Mrs. Barker, who has a fierce temperament, to the confusion with a woman who turns out to be an actress in a local show, their journey becomes a series of comedic misadventures. However, the group does not get discouraged, and their childish spirit drives them to keep going, creating bonds of friendship and courage among them.
Finally, on the brink of despair, they find a sweet grandmother who lives alone in a cabin near the forest. As the woman learns the children's story and their situation, she feels moved and decides to help them change their lives. Through laughter, games, and touching moments, the little ones discover that love can be found in the most unexpected places and that, together, they can overcome any obstacle.
