What happens when the person who shared the most beautiful stories is gone? Can their magic still linger on? After losing their grandmother, three siblings spend a weekend with their grandfather. Together, they discover how they can face the feeling of loss.
Tom, Susan, and Derek return to the garden full of enchanted creatures and adventures, where they once listened to their grandmother's favourite stories. As they create their own stories according to family tradition, they discover that imagination can brighten even the gloomiest day. Together with their grandfather, they reach for memories that, like fairy tales, do not fade, but evolve and remain in our hearts forever. Tales from the Magic Garden is a stop-motion animation that explores how important it is to cherish the memory of loved ones in order to – with the help of our imagination – find hope and comfort even in the most difficult moments.
