About The Wild Swans
Elise, a princess, lives happily together with her eleven brothers. When her father, the king, marries again, he banishes Elisa. Hereafter his new wife turns Elise's eleven brothers into swans. But fortunately Elise finds her brothers, who are swans during daylight and human beings at night time. In a dream, the fairy Fatamorgana tells the story of the unhappy princess and how she rescues her brothers, the eleven princes.
Directed by Peter Flinth, Ghita Nørby, The Wild Swans leans on a strong ensemble — Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, Stine Fischer Christensen, Ghita Nørby — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 2009.
