The film follows a group of children living in the same alley. The garbage truck arrives every day disrupting their dreams. The sleepy children are forced to take the garbage out every time and play in the alley after the garbage are taken. The garbage truck stops coming to their alley, allowing them to finally sleep and dream for longer but also results in the neighbours throwing garbage in the alley, stopping the children from playing together.
