Synopsis 'Everyone is good for something'. A 2D hand-drawing animation about a young witch. A young witch, Ella, keeps looking for a job which suits her. As she wrongly uses her magic power, she fails in every job. She then falls into a dump with great depression. In the dump, she meets a broken puppet who then inspires her that even something labeled as rubbish may be useful in other ways. Finally, she uses her magic power again to create something great...Everyone has talents, the difference just depends on how you use it.

All in all, it was a new perspective for me."
