Description
Jacob dreams of becoming a pirate, a good pirate who will protect the oceans, just like his Uncle Christophe. The day he meets three menacing giants, Jacob bravely confronts them with his magic sword in hand. Caught in the torments of a storm, his sailboat drifts to a distant and unknown coast. There, Jacob meets a mysterious grandmother walking with a bucket of water in her hand. With her, he embarks on a journey to a world where you don?t have to fight to convince the giants to respect nature.
