Day in and day out it rains on the cloudy island, making it perpetually dark and preventing the islanders from seeing the sun or moon. Their only light is the circling beam of the lighthouse. When Kate and her friend Tom climb above the cloud cover, they discover an expansive blue sky and golden sun. Soon, all the islanders wonder at the spectacle.
