half-sister and brother, illegitimate
offspring of the Greek Thunder God Zeus, are stranded on an island ranch
just off the coast of Los Angeles. They wait in vain for their father to
move them to new lives. Their father, Zeus, fates a play, "The Importance
of Being Earnest," by Oscar Wilde, which the children must perform
if they want to survive. The children face eviction by the U.S. Government
- the island is to be turned into a National Park. Unable to wait, they
seek new lives in Los Angeles, where they meet colorful characters, adventure
and romance, and the thing they most want - a fresh start.
