What The Story of Heidi is
Here's a charming tale about being dumped on a relative. Young Heidi is dropped off with her grumpy, goatherding grandfather in the Alps. She makes friends and has adventures, until her aunt reappears to ruin everything. It's an hour and a half very loosely based on a 52-episode show.
