If you have a crown, a kingdom, a castle, and you still don't feel happy, listen to the story of the Virgin and the Swan, who wanted to see the world from above. Maybe you have dreamt of doing the same? If so, this fairy tale will remind you: never forget your dream if you want to be happy. The drama of the relationship between the Virgin Swan and the King who loved her is brought to life in the play. The girl bird, who is gifted with diligence and beauty, loses her wings and the ability to fly, but becomes the beloved wife of the King. The earthly and rational ruler cannot understand his beloved's dreams and intentions to take to the skies again, to leave his son behind and renounce his life in the palace. However, the desire for flight in the nature of the Virgin Swan not only helps her to regain her wings, but inspires even the King himself to "resolve, to spread his wings and to fly to happiness". The subtle use of shadow theatre to create a fairy tale on the screen is complemented by the poetic comments of the Man and the Woman rolling together on the train, suggesting the eternal conflict between the celestial dreams of a woman and the earthly desires of a man.
