Mala morska vila
Brief Synopsis
Read More
The little mermaid rescues a prince from drowning and falls in love with him. To be with him, she makes a deal with the evil sorceress: her beautiful voice against a life on land. It seems to work at first, the prince is enchanted with her lovely appearance. But the memory of a foreign princess still haunts him: The one who found him on the beach where the mermaid had left him, and whom he (of course) believes to be his saviour. To resolve this mistake is too much for the mute little mermaid, and not even her father, king of all seas, can help her in the impending catastrophe.

Where we live, men have started building dikes. Every night my husband tears them down again. I don't even remember what it's like to have a good sleep.- Queen of the Sargasso Sea
They think we look like fish!- King of All Seas
You look very pale. You shouldn't have sailed with us. That's not for women. If I told you what my divers have seen in the ocean, you would certainly be horrified. Giant snakes with two heads. And many octopusses that break a man's bones and suck out his blood!- Captain
