Hillel doesn't want to go to sleep and explains to his mother that things appear different in the dark. She tells him that his imagination is playing tricks on him and suggests that he counts sheep. But when Hillel hugs his Teddy Bear, everything changes suddenly: the bear comes to life, the bed turns into a boat, the carpet becomes the sea and the two of them find themselves in an adventurous journey.

On that trip, Hillel understands how to overcome his fears while following his imagination.
