Content:
At the end of fairy training, each pupil has to pass a test. She has to perform a miracle - and make a human happy. In the workshop of the old doll maker Gepetto, a young fairy attempts her journeyman's piece. But it doesn't quite work out. Only a freshly carved doll comes to life and is a real wooden head. He runs around the world, trusts crooks, skips school and lets himself be swallowed by a whale. And yet his father, old Gepetto, loves him. When the three of them meet again after many detours in the dollmaker's workshop, they decide to stay together. An old fuddy-duddy, a failed fairy and a wooden doll that talks. A small, quirky family.
