Kristian And fra Herli Land
The brothers Kristian And and Lille And have an encounter with the Princess from Herli Land, which leads to the three of them becoming friends. The power-hungry Bjørg Villkatt, with the help of the gang Erte Skjære, Guro Kråke, and Åge Mage, plans to steal King Quart's scepter. Whoever holds the scepter of the Princess's father gains all the power in Herli Land. But they probably didn't count on Kristian Ånd's penchant for extreme sports and disasters, and Lille Ånd's ability to plan. In this performance, friendship is put to the test, evil and greed are defeated, and all by two little ducks and a really cool Princess.
