Based on the eponymous fairy tale by Peter Asbjørnsen, this is the story of a young man named Hans, who is given a magical flute that can shepherd any living creature. The King's daughter wishes for hares, and Hans agrees to help. However, soon he finds himself in trouble when the royal family wish for the flute itself. With quick thinking and a few tricks up his sleeve, Hans must navigate the whims of the royal court and protect himself from their avaricious intentions.
