Have you ever seen a parade of ridiculous, greedy people stuck together in a long, squirming line? It all starts with a kindhearted but frequently mocked young boy known as Simpleton. When he shares his meager meal with a hungry old man in the forest, his generosity is rewarded with a spectacular prize: a goose with feathers made of pure, gleaming gold. But such a magnificent bird quickly attracts a lot of unwanted attention. Everyone who tries to secretly pluck a valuable golden feather from the magical goose finds themselves instantly and permanently stuck to it. Soon, Simpleton is wandering through the countryside trailing a hilarious, tangled mess of selfish townspeople trying frantically to pull themselves free. The chaotic spectacle is so wildly funny that it achieves the impossible: it makes a famously gloomy princess burst into roaring laughter. According to the kings law, whoever makes the princess laugh gets to marry her. But the stubborn king refuses to give his daughter to a poor boy and sets a series of impossible tests. Can Simpletons good heart overcome the kings tricky challenges?
