Balloonist Albert crash-lands into a village full of women who have been waiting for 21 years for their men to return from war. He lands in a beautiful place beside a red post-box in the middle of a weird hamlet.

This is storytelling which whisks us away to a land that time forgot. Board a magical mystery tour bus to a secret location!
