A fog-bound road, a garden that has no business being there, and a single rose picked without asking: that is where the trouble starts. The merchant who takes it comes home with terrible news, and his youngest daughter—who only wanted a flower—offers herself in his place. The castle provides endless corridors, meals laid by unseen hands, and a host who would rather stay in the shadows. Hand-drawn animation from the early nineties, telling the old tale politely and without hurry.
