Ordinary schoolchildren Mach and Šebestová gain magical powers thanks to a donated magic phone receiver. The receiver fulfils their wishes, allowing them to visit various places and encounter interesting and unusual situations.

Two of their classmates, poor students and incorrigible urchins Horáček and Pažout, are the series' main antagonists.
