An Italian treasure hunt
A group of Italian children take part in a treasure hunt amongst mythical stone creatures in the 16th century Monster Park on the edge of Rome. The Monster Park was created by Prince Orsini for his wife in 1552 and he filled it with statues depicting mythological characters. The group of children are given maps so they can seek out the hidden treasure. Clues lead them from one statue to the next, such as Pegasus and the Sleeping Beauty, and eventually they reach the site of the treasure in the Ogre, the most fearsome of all the characters in the park. Spoken Italian with Italian graphics. Narrated in English.
