Die Hexenprinzessin
Amalindis, the first-born of the two royal twins, is dutiful and agrees to marry Prince Tanka. Zottelhaube, on the other hand, the second-born, does not feel connected to her nobility, but to the great outdoors and a wolf - and lives in the forest. Suddenly, three witches kidnap Amalindis, as the first-born can be a witch herself. The witches see this as a prerequisite for the eldest of them being able to rejuvenate herself in order to survive: she will slip into the body of Amalindis for the next solar eclipse! "Zottel" suspects that time is running out before this transformation. Reluctant to go with Tanka, who is determined to accompany her, she sets off on the dangerous journey to rescue her sister. She has no idea that she, of all people, will fall in love in the process. And she has no idea that it will soon be in question who is actually the first-born and therefore the one with powerful witchy abilities.

I do not expect much when waching a movie produced for the german publicly funded broadcasting service zdf. But this one is actually good. The acting is servicable. The storie is not to unbelievable in the context of a fairy tale movie aimed at kids. The production value is good. The music is good to great (I like the music choice for the wiches especially). To end this review here are some things i would like to mention expicitly: -Jerry Hoffmans Character Prince Tanka is introduced as Prince from a foeign Kingdom, therefore his skincoulor does not stand out in this medieval european Fairy Tale. -there is some deliberate overacting with the evil witches, some people might not like that but I do. -This Movie doesn't attempt to deconstruct morals and social norms of the past acording to current morals and social norms. At least not to much. -I only watched the german version of this movie, I cant judge any translation that might exist. -this movie does not have any grand and important message, it's just an enjoyable adventure movie that can we watched with the whole family.
