Overview

A princess is born to the king and queen of a fairy-tale kingdom. The wicked witch, who resented not being invited to the princess's birthday party, curses her - on the day the princess turns 16, she will be pricked by the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall into eternal sleep. The king orders that all spinning wheels in the kingdom be destroyed and the number 16 be taken out of use. However, a young traveling prince appears in the kingdom, brings with him a curse and is destined to dispel the evil sorceress's spell.
