The Darling children are whisked away to a magical land where they must confront pirates and learn the meaning of growing up.

Peter Pan, the boy who never grows up, appears one night to Wendy, John, and Michael Darling and teaches them to fly. He transports them to Neverland, a place of wonder and peril, where they join the Lost Boys. Their idyllic adventures are constantly threatened by the nefarious Captain Hook, who harbors a deep-seated hatred for Peter. The children must navigate this fantastical world, facing pirates, mermaids, and fairies, all while grappling with the inevitable pull of home and the concept of growing older.
