Soren
Planejar um casamento nunca é tarefa fácil: organizar os convidados, pensar em todos os detalhes da festa, o vestido, as famílias, o que servir… e é ainda muito mais difícil quando se vai casar com o Rei da Dinamarca, disputadíssimo por todas as coroas da Europa… e objeto de um plano para fazê-lo casar com a sua filha para ficar rico, como é o caso do príncipe herdeiro da Noruega. Esse plano parece mais fácil de alcançar quando a tal filha é amiga de infância do Rei, cheia de historinhas para contar de quando ele era criança e estava descobrindo o mundo e as garotas nele. E também o fato de que a tal princesa é bem rodada pela Europa, vai a todas as festas bacanas, conhece milhões de pessoas famosas e pior, tenta se passar por amiga…para ajudar… Esta hilariante comédia romântica nos mostra que as disputas pelas coroas não acabaram, mas se modernizaram, fazendo deste conto de fadas do século 21 uma batalha real.
