There are 4 siblings with horrible parents - they do not care about their kids' "childish needs". The kids go hungry and do not have enough warm clothes.
The parents do not know where their kids keep coming from which is so funny. The mom exclaims how they keep coming.
The oldest son assumes that orphan care is the dream life to have - which we learn is not true.
The daughter takes in a baby left in front of their home and the oldest names the baby Ruth. They leave this baby in the care of a man who has a candy factory.
They created a fake brochure and gave it to their parents who fell for their plan. The kids assumed their parents would die in some way by travelling out in the dangerous world.
The parents hire a cheap nanny who actually is a very friendly and caring woman.
The supposed ending was very sad - the children go to rescue their parents on the Alps by warming them up to unfreeze them. The parents question their treatment to their kids but brush the thoughts aside, skipping to their transportation.
The kids are left stranded on the Alps and they huddle together while the girl sings a sad but beautiful song. It is assumed they are dying but the cute narrator who is a cat tells us the story cannot end like this.
Nanny and candy man comes back to rescue them and they go home to become a family with the baby Ruth.
Alessia Cara's voice is absolutely amazing and beautiful - she voices Jane and the song she sings for this film is soothing.
