One flash from the sky, one secret lighthouse – and summer turns into the greatest adventure of a lifetime! For the children on the small island of Trs, summer is endlessly monotonous – until Fran arrives, a city “slicker” with a vivid imagination. His telescope captures a mysterious flash in the night sky, and he leads the crew – headed by the jealous Bumbar – on a night time search. Near an abandoned lighthouse, they discover Chiku, a frightened boy from Africa, and realize the “meteor” wasn’t a rock from the sky but the result of a smuggling accident at sea. Pursued by the Man in Black, the children hide Chiku and set out to expose a human trafficking network. The conflict comes to a head when Bumbar uncovers the identity of the threatening figure. Torn between his friends and family, Bumbar ultimately sides with the team; Chiku is saved, and the smuggler ends up behind bars. A summer that promised boredom transforms into an adventure that changes the children forever.
