This is the classic Norwegian fairytale about the "Princess that no one could silence", told by a father to his daughter. When the story is over, the daughter still doesn't want to go to bed, she wants to know what happens next. The father then continues the story; The Princess has been captured by the troll and it falls on Askeladden to embark on a daring rescue mission. But in the middle of the father's storytelling, the daughter interrupts him and begins to tell her own version of the story. Both narrators try to change the story as they want, but what happens when the Princess suddenly no longer follows what they say?
