The Plot :

In their enchanted kingdom, the king and queen lament the fact that they still have no children. But one day, an old and ugly woman begs for the first milk tooth of the royal heir. Thus it is that nine months later Princess Amandine, perfect in every way, sees the light of day.
Unfortunately, fairytale queens have short memories and the tooth is offered to a sycophantic courtier. As a result Amandine has to cope with all sorts of tribulations in order to combat the misfortune that befalls the kingdom and at the same time instil some hope and confidence into her parents, who have become slightly depressed.
