Mia lives with her family in a small South American village beneath the snowy mountains. Their house is put together from the dumped rubbish of the city - it is not much of a place. One day Mia's father brings her a puppy, which she calls Poco because he's so small. When Poco runs away, Mia travels far up into the mountains to search for him. There she finds some white mountain flowers, growing under the stars. Planting them in her village, the flowers bloom and spread all over the dumps. Mia's father helps her sell the flowers in the city, and when asked where they come from, Mia always thinks of Poco and replies, "They come from the stars."
