Sleeping Beauty's daughter Aurora is cursed by the same evil fairy as her mother. When she pricks her finger and starts feeling sleepy, she and her sister Luna set sail with fisherman Symon to seek fairy Emmeline to remove the curse. The tension in this gentle fantasy is sometimes low-stakes, but the well-sustained atmosphere and the sisters' realistic interactions will please fairy-tale lovers.
