Synopsis

Another star-studded fairy tale FROM Zdeněk Troška based on Jan Drda's Czech Honza, at the time of its release it was the most expensive Czech fairy tale to date. A foolish princess wants to marry a good-looking lad who, of course, is in love with just a simple girl. The plot thickens with the inclusion of a benevolent dragon and a malevolent neighbouring king (acted by a popular Czech singer Daniel Hůlka).
