At first the local villagers are wary of the strange girl who cries beautiful blossoms instead of tears, but in time they begin to treasure her magical gift and desire her flowers. Olivia, a kind and giving spirit, resolves to spend her days thinking sad thoughts and crying mountains of flowers for the insatiable villagers.

However, sudden love brings change when Olivia falls for a jovial farmer named Panos. Panos desires nothing from Olivia except her happiness and so, out of love, he forbids her from crying. But the villagers will not simply forsake their beloved Girl Who Cries Flowers…
