Programme
A man spends his whole life chained in a tower, like a wild beast, in the middle of a forest. He knows only his jailer, who tells him about the world but hides the reason for his confinement: he is the crown prince of a great kingdom, and his father, the king, has locked him up since his birth for fear that a prophecy would come true according to which his son would become cruel and savage and rebel against him. One day, already old, the king decides to put the prophecy to the test and orders that the sleeping prince be brought to the palace. In the meantime, a mysterious stranger enters the story. The different dreams intertwine and disaster is imminent.
