While exploring the woods behind her house, young Winnie Foster (Margaret Chamberlain) meets the charismatic Jesse Tuck (Paul Flessa). Jesse introduces Winnie to his family, who turn out to be immortals living near the Fountain of Youth. Winnie is taken in by Angus (Fred A. Keller) and the rest of the family, though their idyll is soon interrupted by a power-hungry man who wants to sell the spring water. Winnie and the Tucks must make sure their secret remains safe -- which proves no easy task.
