Lucky and the Giant Machine is based on a true story about how curiosity leads to discovery and the importance of asking questions. It begins with two boys who wonder about the origins of the aluminum pots in their kitchen. With the help of their dad, they learn about how a valuable mineral used for aluminum is mined on their island and exported for processing into numerous products. Join them on their adventure with the 'Giant Machine' that mines the ore and see how this quest leads to even more questions.
