Synopsis
Little Billy lives under the tyranny of his monstrous aunt, who drags him to the cemetery every day, forcing him to clean the gravestone of his late uncle. It is at the cemetery that Billy befriends Myrtle, a little ghost suspended between the world of the living and the world of the dead. But freeing Myrtle and allowing her to finally ascend to heaven would mean for Billy losing the only true friend he has ever had.
