Synopsis

Princess Aurinia is travelling to meet her bridegroom, whom she has not yet seen. On the way, her crafty maid Liesa robs her mistress of all her possessions and forces her to exchange clothes and swear an oath of eternal silence. On arriving at the King's court, the faithful horse Falada tries to expose the false bride, but Liesa has the horse killed. Nothing now stands in the way of the wedding - or does it?

 

Based on the fairy tale "The Goose Girl" by the Brothers Grimm.
