About
Christmas Eve Mary receives a nutcracker. At midnight, this gift comes alive and brings her into a world full of dolls, candies and rose scent. The little wooden soldiers of her brother Fritz and the toys that are in the glass cabinet of the family room also come alive.
At the same time, the mice and their king with seven crowns appear in the living room. Battle ensues.
In fact, it turns out to be a stunning Christmas for little Marie.
The tale "Nutcracker and Mouse-king" of Hoffmann was adapted into a ballet in 1892 by Tchaïkovsky.
