Overview

Where has Prince Rujan disappeared to? Has he gone to slay a dragon? But where is the dragon? Military veteran Plavák, with the help of the dwarf Trpaja and Princess Aurora, uncovers even more. A Czech Television fairy tale about the victory of love and goodness, but also about the wisdom and mature decisions that the heirs of ruling dynasties come to in their new positions. Prince Rujan of the Kingdom of Arcadia kills the dragon to which the princess of the Principality of Aquitaine was to be sacrificed. We can rejoice that good has triumphed once again, but it won't be that easy. We are at the very beginning of a story in which evil will sometimes prevail and the injustices of the past will come back to haunt the new generation. The old familiar truth that every evil deed will eventually come back to haunt you is reflected in the fate of all fairy-tale heroes.
