Based on the fairy tale "Wild Swans" by Hans Christian Andersen
Princess Elise has eleven brothers bewitched by their evil stepmother - the boys have been turned into swans. In order to break the spell, Elise must weave a shirt of stinging nettles for every brother. During the work, she must remain completely silent, otherwise his brothers will die. Evil forces follow Elise's strange silence and odd weaving work while trying to destroy hope and love.
