There was once a family - a father, mother and their two sons - who lived in a small modern town in the early 21st century. They lived quietly, but their lives were filled with technology, cell phones, computers and cars. One day, however, something unexpected happened.

While exploring an old attic, they came across a mysterious old clockwork that looked like it was from another century. The sons started playing with it and suddenly something strange happened. The machine spun, and the whole family was mysteriously transported to the century before last, around the middle of the 18th century.

They popped into a busy town square in a small town where carriage flaps echoed, people were dressed in period costumes and horses and carriages were running in the streets. The family was initially stunned and confused. The father reached for his modern cell phone, which suddenly didn't work. The mother noticed that he had no modern handbag, but an old leather luggage case. The children were excited, but also a little scared of their new surroundings.

They had to learn to live without technology - to cook on the stove, to do laundry by hand and to communicate with the local people who only knew the old ways. But they soon started to get used to it. The father roasted dinner on the fire while the mother tended to the children - together they gathered flowers, mushrooms and firewood. The children began to learn to play the old fiddle and learn the basics of education that was available at that time.

The family realized that despite their differences, their lives were less stressful, and that they appreciated more the simple pleasures - walking in nature, spending time together, and helping each other. After a few days, they managed to find a way to go back in time using an old clockwork.

When they returned, they were different. They learned to appreciate technology, but they also realized the importance of simplicity and connection to nature. Since then, they have lived with the idea that technology is useful, but that the greatest treasures are in people and their relationships.
