Two siblings from the 7th century awaken after a thousand years in today’s chaotic world. They find themselves in an unfamiliar environment full of technology and rules they don’t understand. But they are not alone – ancient Slavic gods awaken as well, taking on unexpected forms by inhabiting the parents of their new friends. An ordinary family becomes a source of bizarre situations as the “divine” parents begin to behave very strangely. The four children must join forces, bridge the gap between past and present, and find a way to save their parents. This adventurous fantasy comedy blends Slavic mythology with modern reality, playfully exploring clashes of cultures and generations. It offers a playful, visually engaging story about family, friendship, and the power of cooperation.
