Sweet, innocent little Posh the Peacock has an inquisitive nature and is always curious about what he observes. His dad, McIntosh, is patient and kind with his son as he teaches him about the ways human beings act and interact with one another. McIntosh and Posh's day begins like any other until they find themselves on the outskirts of Jerusalem, observing some type of historical event. Fascinated by the events that are taking place, the father-and-son peacocks position themselves in a place where they can watch, look, and learn from this event. This very usual day turns out to be one of the most important days in history as they watch one of the most devastatingly cruel acts of vengeance unfold together.
