Hans Christian Andersen includes a bit of romance, a bit of drama and a bit of ballet. Hans is a carpenter who loves to tell fairy tales to children and he gets into trouble for telling the children stories when they have to go to school.But Hans goes to a different village across the sea to make some shoes over there. He meets a ballet dancer and falls in love with her. Hans found out that one of his stories called The Little Mermaid got published and went into the news paper.The ballet dancer that Hans met did a ballet scene of The Little Mermaid.If you want to find out what the rest of the film is about you will have to watch it!
