A marriage for Princess Verunka is the trick to rescuing a kingdom impoverished due to its king's crazy ideas. Verunka immediately has several suitors: the poet Alexander Alexandrovich, of whom even Pushkin would grow pale with envy; two-headed Baron Wajsman, who is both a military leader and music composer; the mysterious Marquis, whose mother is Morana, the goddess of Death; and the quirky inventor Sir Klevr. Can Ondra, a boy who yearns to be a whitewater swimmer, become their worthy opponent? (Zlín Film Festival)
