Synopsis
Anna is the largely ignored youngest daughter in her family. While her family talks she daydreams and sees a fairy, the fairy leads her through the woods with a flute to a lake, beckoning her in. Later Anna’s family comes looking anxiously for her. Anna runs to them excitedly, clutching the fairy’s flute. Her mother angrily drags her off, rebuking her for worrying them, her sister grins, feeling superior. Anna drops the flute. Her sister fails to find it and runs after them confused. The fairy returns and retrieves the instrument.
