James endures a hard existence with his two lazy and cruel aunts. When a strange old man offers him some magic green crystals, James eagerly accepts them in hopes that they might bring escape. He is crushed when the package spills, sprinkling the green things into the dirt. All is not lost, though, as the magic apparently expends itself in creating an enormous peach on his aunts' property. James decides to investigate the magical fruit against his aunts' express orders, and one night he climbs inside. What he discovers sets in motion a series of adventures that will bring James new, happy relationships and completely change his life.
