It is late at night, just outside the humble home where a disillusioned young high school student lives alone with her frail grandmother. Despite the late hour and inclement weather the old lady is determined to go out, claiming that the neighborhood theater is about to play an old film the young girl has never heard of, one that grandma herself starred in back in the day. She wanders out into the night, never to return. The girl, now all alone, abandons her schooling to search for her missing grandmother, eventually taking a job in the box office of the theater that was to be grandma’s destination in the hope that if she simply waits there long enough the old woman will finally arrive for her phantom movie screening. But grandma’s movie isn’t the only phantom here, the theater itself playing host to a quartet of singing ghosts who appear late at night, eventually befriending the girl even as they torment the theater manager with memories he’d do anything to just leave behind.
