"The best food doesn't taste good without salt. So I love my father as much as salt."
When the king hears this sentence from his youngest daughter, he rejects her and chases her out of the castle. An old witch takes care of her and lets her work as a gooseherdess from then on. However, as she is too beautiful for this, she gives the princess an ugly face. She is only allowed to return to her old skin for an hour at midnight. During this hour, she lingers by the well and weeps bitterly for the loss of her family. Her tears, however, turn into pearls.
One day, when a prince helps the old witch carry her pannier, he receives one of the pearls as a reward. The king and queen discover the pearl in the prince's possession and recognize their daughter's tears in it. The three of them immediately set off to find the princess. But will they recognize the enchanted princess?
