Shortly
after the death of his wife, King Conrad decided to remarry for the sake of
his only child the beautiful Snow White. Lady Chrystel, his second wife, was
a wicked woman however. Left to lead the kingdom during her husband's absence,
she rapidly proved her egoism, cruelty, and vanity.
Neglected and lonely, poor Snow White sought consolation in the love and affection
of her three pets: a puppy, a kitten, and a white dove. Luckily, the encounter
with the handsome noble, Prince Richard, did a bit to liven up the life of
the young princess... that was until a sad separation was imposed on the boy,
along with an unexpected and lengthy trip. Just after Richard's departure,
Lady Chrystel, with the help of a hunter, made an attempt at the girl's life.
At the end of a terrible night of wondering through the wilderness, the princess
discovered a cosy little cottage in which, after having explored it, she fell
asleep, exausted. The meeting with the owners of the house, seven nice and
gentle dwarfs, was at first rather frightful, but ended up proving to be a
truthful and enduring friendship.
Each dwarf performed a special skill or task so that their little community
was efficient and organized. They spent several happy months together, working,
playing, organizing little parties, and having plenty of enchanting adventures
in the sorrounding forest. Their happiness was soon to be shattered by the
nasty attempts at Snow White's life on the part of the wicked Queen.
With the aid of witch-craft and the assistance of her familiar (a cruel-looking
little bat), the wicked stepmother would have succeeded in assasinating Snow
White more than once were not for the love and efficiency of the seven dwarfs.
Unfortunately, their "Book of Knowledge" (which contained miracolous remedies,
herbal and otherwise) was of no help against the last, deadly spell... the
poison apple!
T he poor dwarfs tried everything - incursions in the castle included - to
bring their friend back to life. At last, Richard returns from his long trip.
Distraught at the sight of his beloved princess who appeared dead, the devoted
Prince is ready for the ultimate sacrifice in order to save his beloved Snow
White- and just as Snow White's devoted friends are ready to give up. Fortunately,
the terrifying creature responsable for all the sorrow and pain that characterized
this story is to be finally beaten... Happiness and peace then returns to
Green Valley, where Snow White and those dear to her will live a long and
happy life.
