Synopsis
Prince Siegfried is about to turn 21 and realizes that he has the duty to find a wife. After being told to choose a future bride, the prince is presented with a golden crossbow. When he goes into the woods to hunt with his new weapon, he comes across the beautiful Odette. The evil and wicked Von Rothbart has transformed her from a princess into a bird. The bird then seduced the prince, because if he declared his love for her, she would be released from her bonds. The evil sorcerer sends his daughter Odile to seduce the prince, even though the bonds were destined to be broken by Odette. In the end, Odette is left in her bonds as a swan due to the prince’s misguided faithlessness.
