The water fairy Rusalka falls in love with an earthly prince. In vain, Father Aquarius warns her. Her sincere feelings are met with human treachery...

The classic fairy tale, based on the original by Božena Němcová, tells the story of a young coal miner who must overcome many obstacles to win the hand of the desired girl.

Who doesn't know the fairy tale "Cinderella". Josef Lada borrowed the story and, as only he could, humorously retold it as one of his original fairy tales inside out.
