THE STORY
In the Spanish court of the 17th century, it is the birthday of the Infanta - arrogant, spoiled and heartless. As a special entertainment for her twelfth birthday, a “Fantastic” has been brought to the palace - an ugly, dwarfed boy - found innocently dancing and singing in nearby woods. The two children meet, one beautiful, heartless and unhappy; the other naive, poor, absurdly deformed but happy. Of the two, the princess is the more severely crippled because she lacks human compassion. The 'Fantastic' changes her life.
