The story follows a young boy named Bambino who is taken out to sea late at night by his father and grandfather. They row to a spot in the middle of the ocean and wait for the moon to rise. When it does, they set up a ladder and Bambino climbs to the top, discovering that the moon is covered in glowing stars. The boy learns the family tradition of sweeping fallen stars off the moon's surface, each family member using a different tool. Through this experience, Bambino finds his own way of doing things, blending the methods of his father and grandfather.
