The king was not satisfied with the result of the competition announced for his marriageable daughter’s hand because the winner was a poor vagrant lad. The king decided to submit him to such a trial by what the king would get rid of him: the king made him hare-herder.
With the help of an old woman, who came from “stars” and gave him a “magic pipe”, the lad stood this trial as well. Indeed, through his wiles the lad outwitted the king and his daughter. Finally he gained the princess and the kingdom too.

Made by the Kecskemét Film Studio.

The Hungarian Folktales stem from original folktale collections, every episode has its special authentic ornamentation. The makers used the decorative art of a certain countryside region at each episode. The trio of folk art, folk music and folk tales are masterfully combined in the episodes, which have unique imagery, sometimes spicy folk humor in the dialogues. Thanks to the natural presentation of the storytellers, and the music of the Kaláka band, the viewer can experience something unique and special.
