The Dream Children are about to be written out of Mozart’s most famous opera. Hoping to change their fate, they enlist the help of the composer’s young son Karl. Together the children embark on an incredible journey that takes them back in time to Mozart’s childhood and far into the future. Along the way, Karl learns a lot about his father and comes to understand his legacy of timeless music.
