In a world dominated by towering, steep mountains, pedantic train conductor Peregrin navigates his train over huge bridges and along dangerous ridges. Like a clockwork, he follows the world’s very own rhythm - he has to, if he wants to bring the passengers safely to their destination. One day, the chaotic musician Clara smuggles herself into his machine room. She is immediately fascinated by the innate rhythm of the mighty machine, and begins improvising a lively piece. But when catastrophe strikes, Clara and Peregrin have to overcome their differences in order to save the train from derailing.
