It's a fairy tale most of us know well: Brother and sister get lost in the woods, courtesy of their evil stepmother. There's something about breadcrumbs, a house made of sweets and a conniving witch....Hansel and Gretel live happily ever after, as most of our childhood heroes and heroines are apt to do.
