Synopsis

"The plot is set sometime during the 14th or 15th century and is based on the old chivalrous legends which are now gone forever. It tells of a beautiful girl whose father, a prince, forces her to marry a man she does not love, it tells of robbers and the tragic death of an abducted girl, of a white knight, of the defiance of courage and chivalry, as written many, many years ago in the tales of history." (Quotation from a press release from the time the film was made.)
