Stuck in their late Grandfather’s (Sir Peter Ustinov’s) country cottage with no television, Anthea (Laura Kamrath), Robert (Nick Klein), and Chris (Timothy Hegeman) are resigned to a boring week until they find a moldy old carpet and a strange golden egg. But when the egg accidentally falls into the bonfire, it hatches into the mythical firebird, the Golden Phoenix. So begins an amazing journey and the adventure of a lifetime, as the Phoenix takes them to a land of enchantment, magic, and fantasy, via a magic flying carpet.
