Maddie lives in a village where people work the fields from dusk till dawn, fearing a reoccurrence of the great famine, which devastated the village years before. Maggie longs for a life filled with more than just work, until one day the villagers unearth an old wooden chest buried in the mud. The contents of the chest, though discarded at first, reveal a new world for the villagers, one that is filled with colour, music and laughter.
