Μια γοργόνα µε όµορφη φωνή δέχεται να δουλέψει στο τσίρκο, δελεασµένη από τις υποσχέσεις του Πιτ του πονηρού που της τάζει δόξα και πλούτη. Ο κόσµος ενθουσιάζεται από το τραγούδι της, όµως εκείνη νοσταλγεί την ελευθερία της, τη θάλασσα και τους φίλους της. Ευτυχώς ένας έξυπνος γλάρος και µια επιδέξια ακροβάτισσα καταστρώνουν ένα σχέδιο για να βοηθήσουν τη γοργόνα να δραπετεύσει... "Μην πας! Μην πας!" της φώναζαν τα ψάρια και οι γλάροι. "Ο Πιτ είναι παµπόνηρος, µακριά µας θα σε πάρει!" Μα εκείνη δεν τους άκουσε, τους κούνησε το χέρι και µε χαµόγελο έφυγε να πάει σ’ άλλα µέρη. Μια περιπέτεια γεµάτη αγωνία και λυρισµό, από δύο βραβευµένες δηµιουργούς.
