The story starts with two brothers who are teenagers, Ian and Barley, they go on a journey to find if there is any magic left in this world so that they can spend a day with their father whom they have lost when they were too young. Ian went for this search along with his brother when he received a wooden magical staff which had a Phoenix gem and a letter from their dead father as a present for his birthday which described that they can resurrect their father for one day. 

The boys get excited that they can now finally bring back their father and can spend one whole day with him and starts searching for another gem that can complete the quest.

The movie overall is pretty fast and does not create boredom as the characters are always in search of something which creates a mess and they try to get out of that mess. It is a great film by Pixar.
