While their parents are away, twins Remco and Sofia visit the National Museum of Antiquities. Remco is immediately attracted to a mysterious ancient Egyptian crystal that is on display and has a curse on it: whoever touches the object will age 10 years every 24 hours. Intruiged by this prospect Remco touches the object, right at the moment when his sister tries to stop him doing so. They are immediately thrown out of the museum. Next day upon awakening they discover they both have aged 10 years. Sofia is quite distressed, but Remco quite enjoys this new adventure. This changes when in the next few days it appears they again age 10 years every day. In their 70s they decide it is high time to reverse the curse, but is that still possible?
Television film based on a short story by 14-year old Celine van Tol.
