Mini-gourmand Mimi has always wanted to visit her grandpa’s “Ah Sui’s Store”, not because of the history of this old-fashioned snack shop, but because she has heard that it is filled with delicious snacks and candies. Her dream finally comes true during one summer holiday. She makes friends with the snacks, turns the shop into a magical adventure playground, and learns to cherish both her grandfather and his store. When the little girl later discovers the businessman’s plan to close down the shop, she sets out to save it. Will she be able to succeed?

Silent movie master Charlie Chaplin has a big secret only known to a few. His great success in black-and-white films makes him resist colourful reality. This means no bright clothes and no interaction with people living in such a rainbow realm. As technology advances and colour films and TV become the norm, unsociable Charlie increasingly locks himself away. Life is certainly looking grey until, luckily, friends come to the rescue and help him face up to handling the world in all its hues.
