Story
:
12-year old Joanne is coming to the countryside to
spend her holidays at her uncles house.
Three years have passed since her mother died and its the first time her father has
left her on her own. Unhappy at first, Joanne gradually makes friends with her uncle
Arnot.
She also finds friends among the local children - especially Georgie. Together the
children embark on mysterious and charming adventures which lead Joanne to one more
friend: old man Hans, an eccentric who lives in a ramshackle house and believes, as does
Joanne, in the existence of unearthly beings.
By chance they come across an ancient legend which tells of a visitation of aliens
in the very place where Hans lives. Joanne and the old man set out to unravel the mystery
and test the truth of the legend.
