Description
A touching fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen about a young mermaid who dreams of becoming human to win the love of a prince. She is ready to sacrifice everything in the world for love: her beautiful voice, her family living in the sea, to go through hellish pain — all for the chance to find human happiness on earth.
