Our story takes us back to Castle Oreb, where friendly ghosts live with the horrible Mazal family. It's not easy living with the Mazal family, especially when the castle lords Hugo and Růžena haven't given up their desire to get rich. A little older but still unbearable are their children; Hugo Jr. only thinks of himself and Pavlinka is still caught up with new trends. But the ghosts have another problem. They haven't managed to organize the fairy-tale symposium and the fairy-tale book of spells is lost; the book mustn't get into the wrong hands. And it's more than clear that the Mazals would love to get their hands on such a book.

Section: Czech Films and TV
Directed by: Martin Dolenský
Czech Republic, 2016, 15 min
Projection place: Golden Apple Cinema 3
Score:
In many once-upon-a-time fairy-tales it's like this: an evil wizard kidnaps a princess and the hero has to complete three tasks to save her...The characters are typically fairy-tale-like, yet they have a lot in common with the people of today. An ambitious knight has planned out his son's entire life and constantly has the need to tell him what to do. He even takes him out into the world where he looks out for him. The son would rather read books or paint, but all his father knows are weapons and fighting. But circumstances force them to reconsider their attitudes: the knight learns that not everything can be solved with a sword, and his son realizes that evil must be fought. The love of a beautiful princess and half of a kingdom is then his legitimate reward.

The secret trip does their grandfather good, but then a stray dog appears and indirectly causes him and his wheelchair to end up in a pond. Though the kids can't swim, they jump in after him.
