Dan the Dancer

Directed by Nagy Lajos
TV-Y
S5 • E5    Jan 3, 1995
The old king announces that he marries that girl who can spin gold thread from tow. A pock-marked, aged and lame girl manages to do it with the help of a devil but she must promise that she will be his woman both physically and spiritually a year later unless she finds out his name up to that time. The king marries the girl willy-nilly and they are becoming friends but the queen is getting sad more and more. Fortunately the king accidentally learns the devil’s name. But the queen does not escape after all and she turns into tar together with the devil.
