Ashti and her mother spend a sunny day at the park, following a strange, joyful sound that seems to dance through the trees. The sound leads them to an old man sitting on a bench, singing, scatting, and tapping his feet while feeding a flock of happy birds.

But he also shares something that makes him sad: the music program at the school where he once taught is about to disappear.
