The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm
The lives of the Grimm brothers Wilhelm and Jacob, who became famous in the nineteenth century for their literary works, are the subject of a dramatization. Wilhelm struggles to compose something entertaining amidst the sea of dry, non-fiction books that they write, and he begins the process of gathering oral-tradition fairy tales to put into print. Wilhelm's goal is to write something that will appeal to a wider audience. Reenactments of three of their legends, including "The Dancing Princess," "The Cobbler and the Elves," and "The Singing Bone," are interspersed throughout their life story.
