Регентруда
Novel
Было жаркое лето, нещадно палило солнце. Казалось, что даже синева неба поблекла. Земля высохла, и всё, что росло в ней, погибло. Люди и животные страдали от жажды. Старики говорили, что это случилось потому, что хозяйка дождя — фея Регентруда — заснула, и на земле поселился злой волшебник огня Фойербарт. Андрес и его невеста Марен пускаются в путь, чтобы найти и разбудить Регентруду. Если фея проснётся, то тёплый летний дождь напоит землю, вновь зазеленеют поля, вернётся радость к людям, и Андрес и Марен отпразднуют свою свадьбу. О том, как молодым людям удалось обмануть злого волшебника Фойербарта и преодолеть все трудности на пути к подземному царству Регентруды, рассказывает фильм.
