Princess Maleen (By The Brothers Grimm)

Princess Maleen's father locks her in a tower because she loves Count Konrad. When she escapes seven years later, her father is dead, the land ravaged by war, and Konrad fatefully engaged to be married...

Princess Maleen is in love with Count Konrad. But he's not a suitable bride for a Princess. Maleen's father, Lord Theodor, has other plans for her: He wants her to marry crafty Marshal Raimund. Maleen resists with all her might, so her father locks her in the tower until she forgets her beloved Konrad. After seven years, Maleen finally manages to remove enough rocks from the tower wall so she can escape. Finally free, she roams a countryside devastated by war. Even her father isn't alive anymore. Alone and in despair, Maleen goes in search of food and her beloved Konrad. Konrad has waited for his Princess all these long seven years. When he comes to the tower and finds it deserted, with fresh gaves outside, he thinks he's lost Maleen forever. The only thing that can save him from ruin is to marry wealthy, crafty Walpurga. Just as the preparations are underway, an exhausted Maleen reaches Konrad's estate. Disguised as a simple maid, she helps in the preparations. Meawhile, Walpurga is crafting a fiendish plan...

A moving fairy tale about the power of true love to move mountains. Based on a fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm.
