Whatever did happen to Hansel and Gretel? Meet Johannes and Margarethe as they open the door of their little cottage - for one day only - to mark a very special celebration.
Inside, strange things occur and every now and then, the wind blows through the room – just like it used to in the deep dark woods.
It’s all rather exciting. The music, the scent, the pickle jars. And a chest full of gold and diamonds. That all once belonged to the witch.
It’s time to tell what really happened back then.
How they finally made their way home.
