Nothing seems able to disturb the peace and tranquility of the inhabitants of the small Flemish town of Kikenton, so discreet that even the maps forget it. All this until the mad scientist Dr. Ox unleashes a strange gas of his own inspiration into the atmosphere in an attempt to "revive" the spirits a bit... A "different" Jules Verne reminds us how easily any society can slide into hatred looking for answers, always under the guidance of its enlightened rulers.
One of the most beloved authors of all time, the father of science fiction, Jules Verne (1828-1905), was born in Nantes, France, and as a child spent his summers in a country house on the banks of the Loire River, where he was enchanted by the stories of sailors and the sight of ships returning to port from every corner of the world. His books have raised generations and generations of readers by taking them on a journey through his magical worlds.
