In a faraway, floating city in the sky, a young girl named Sephie finds herself saddled with the remarkable obligation of political leadership. Her father, who was once minister of the city of Meridian, dies unexpectedly, and leaves the peace-loving kingdom entirely in his orphan child`s hands. Her shameless capitalist uncle, the minister of nearby city Cadador, offers to take her under his wing and introduce her to the world of politics, but Sephie soon discovers that Ilan is not the kindly relative she once believed him to be. In fact, he was once involved in a bitter rivalry with his brother (Sephie`s late father) over the affections of Sephie`s now deceased mother. Now, Sephie must not only rule the city, but also fend off evildoers from Cadador whose mission is to stop her at all costs. Fortunately, she has been inexplicably endowed with mystical powers of healing and other superheroic abilities. The artfully drawn, finely shadowed illustrations of a stunning fantasy world are rendered surprisingly lifelike throughout the production.
