A quirky tale intended to entertain and inspire: the fun-poking nine-year-old protagonist and her hysterical pizza-loving witch-hunter dad, an obstinately daydreaming kid and his two witch brothers addicted to lettuce juice, some jokes and tears along the way, some falling-asleep, and lots of planes and drunken dreams, all in a pre-apocalyptic atmosphere leading up to an ultimate question - do sleepers dream of drunken planes? - that could, in a ridiculously ineffable manner, save the world.

Or maybe even a few battered souls.
