Based on a true story that was narrated over 1400 years ago, The Jar deals with the epic struggle between good and evil, and highlights the ethics and virtues every family values. Set in a Middle Eastern village, the story of the jar begins when a poor yet virtuous family discovers a lost treasure buried in a jar under their new home. In their quest to return the jar to its rightful owner, a jealous and greedy neighbor who has his eye on the jar foils their attempts. A fascinating adventure ensues as the towns-folk try to solve the mystery of the jar. There are also two mice who steal the family's eggs, but are defeated by the family's pet squirrel.
