Jessie believes she's living in 1840 Indiana, but a deadly outbreak reveals a shocking truth: it's 1996, and her village is a historical reenactment. When medicine is needed to save the children, Jessie must venture into the outside world, a place far more dangerous than she ever imagined. She faces a race against time to get help before it's too late for her village and herself.
