Synopsis: Rolesare reversed in this colorful adaptation of the Russian folk tale.  QueenNatasha is tired and wants to turn over the throne to one of her threesons.  But which one?  Boris, her oldest son, is mighty and strong,while Casimir, the middle son, is clever with words and young Sasha is kind,but rather inept.  Each of them has some, but not all, of the qualitiesneeded to be a good king, and the queen reveals that the difference between agood king and a great king is the woman behind the throne.  So she sendsher sons off to find wives, using an arrow to guide them.  Boris’s arrowleads him to the brave warrior Ursula, Casimir finds the vain and materialisticVass and Sasha’s arrow pierces Natalia ...  a frog!  Though theladies and gentlemen of the kingdom laugh, Sasha proceeds with the marriage tofulfill his duty.  To determine which of the three ladies-er, two ladiesand one frog-is the best wife, Queen Natasha designs three contests. Princess Natalia proves herself to be adept at both shirt making and breadbaking in hysterical scenes, but how can a frog dance at a grand ball?! You’re audiences will be charmed with this delightful and funny tale. Without any preachiness, this very clever story also teaches that it pays to bekind to everyone ...  including frogs!
