Prince Siegfried's 21st birthday is a cause for great celebration. During a majestic ceremony at the palace, young girls compete for his attention. They know that this newly knighted prince must choose a wife during the opulent ball. Daunted by his responsibility, Siegfried flees into the night. At an enchanted lake, he encounters a strange flock of swans, one of whom transforms into the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. Cursed by a sorcerer, Odette is a white swan by day and human by night. Only a pledge of true love can break the spell.
