It all started on Tuesday, after school.

I waited For my best friend Benke.

I didn't know it would be the most amazing day of my life.

We can't be late. I am ready. Come.

You will see. It's not like those kites that we had.

We wanted to try a new kite which Benke did with his father.

But first we went to the corner store buy crackers for Aunt Edly.

Plain crackers only, no salt.

Good morning. -Hello boys.

- The rest, Boss. -Thank you, Miss Lundin.

Thank you.

-Goodbye! -Goodbye!

I live with Ciocia Edla and Uncle Sixten

Because my mother died when I was born.

And no one has found my father to tell him about me.

I'll be right back

Do not slam the door.

And take off your shoes and wash your hands.

I don't want you pooping everywhere.

Edla really wanted a little girl, but there was none in the orphanage.

She took me instead.

Did you buy cookies? Put on the table.

Close the fridge.

And wash the glass. Exactly.

bosses? bosses!

-Why are you not answering? -I've already washed.

Ben is waiting for me. Can I go now?

Please!

They are salty. I told you clearly that they are not to be with salt.

But you don't hear what I have to tell you. You're not paying attention to what I'm saying.

You know very well that uncle salt it hurts the heart.

This is how you want to thank us for being with us?

bosses! take now. run!

run!

Carefully!

Run with me, Benke.

Now my turn.

All right. Let go of the line. A bit more.

Just like that!

Sometimes I wish Benken's dad he was also my father.

I think a lot about my dad who is and where is --

- why can't I be with him instead of Edla and Uncle Sixten.

18:40!

Aunt Edla said: I would like to to return home for dinner at the sixth hour.

I will be late!

-Hit! -Oh no!

-Take the hat! -No, leave it! give it back!

Pass here!

Let me go!

Do you know it's twenty-seven?

How often do I have to tell you wipe your shoes thoroughly?

I wipe the floor dry in the morning.

... And don't hang up a wet jacket on my uncle's coat.

-You're late. -Sorry.

-What is this? -It was not my fault.

To the bathroom.

We're having problems with it.

We're going to sit with him now. Sixten?

Sixten!

He's as bad as his father. His father was a real bastard.

Will definitely go the same way.

Upbringing won't help. He will end up like his father.

My dad is not angry. He is'nt bad. Is not! Is not!

I will find my father I will find him.

And you will see how great it is. Just wait.

I'll find him, you'll see.

Others were wrong too. Aunt Edla and Uncle Sixten.

Yes, everything is fixed now.

-Now you will live with me, in my castle on an island of green pastures

-No, of course. My name is Mio. -Yes I know.

The king announced the news by courier all over the country, that Mio came home.

Jum Jum's father takes care of my roses. He is the royal gardener.

You're lucky Mio. Miramis is the best horse in the country.

-Would you like to go for a ride too? Oh yes.

[children laugh]

You are the best of the best horses all over the world.

-Is this wonderful horse yours? -Yes, his name is Miramis.

-What is your name? - Nonna. And these are my sheep.

What strange music... Please, will you teach me how to play it?

Sure.

hold. They belonged to my two brothers.

But they won't need them anymore.

Put the flute to your mouth and listen as the wind sings in the trees.

Nonno taught us how to play that strange melody.

He also told a story How his father learned her from his father, and he from his For thousands of years, said Nonno, shepherds played it on the island.

-It's for you, please. -Thank you!

It was the tastiest bread I've ever tried!

we call him "bread that satisfies every hunger."

-Take it, you need it. -Thank you.

-What's going on now? -You will see.

Look down and be very quiet.

From the beginning of time there lived a cruel, evil knight lived in Castle Blackest

He was so angry

that he decided to remove all the children --

- from the peaceful land in which they lived

All his guards and spies they had hearts of the hardest rock.

For thousands of years, people have lived in fear from the evil knight's terror.

Children who refused to serve him Turned into birds --

- were doomed to circle at the Lake of Death from which heaps of stones emerged

-and its spooky castle

But one day the king's son. wandered through the Forest of Mysteries

With your only friend

on a beautiful white horse.

Father. Where is the Forest of Secrets?

Why are you asking?

I'd like to go there tonight.

As soon?

Please father, I want this.

As soon ...

Maybe you don't want to let me.

You're worried about me that something will happen to me in the darkness of the Forest of Mysteries

NO!

Why? Should I?

The forest sleeps peacefully in the moonlight, There is no danger.

Do you want me to stay here. With you?

No, Mia.

The Forest of Secrets is waiting for you.

You can go on Miramis he will guide you but there is something you should know:

There's something beyond the country --

-behind the Forest of Secrets.

Who lives there?

Kato, the Evil Knight.

You are dearest to me, My Mio.

But my heart bleeds heavily thinking about Kato.

If the thought of him hurts your heart so much, Then don't think about him anymore.

You're right. I will not.

-And you won't worry? -NO.

Promise? I promise.

It's time, Mia. go. go!

Thank you, father.

I will be back very soon.

I promise.

yum-yum! You know what I'm gonna do tonight?

When the moon rises I want to explore the Forest of Mysteries.

-At last. -Yes. Do you want to go too?

Sure, sure. Look here what I have.

To keep us warm. And "bread that satisfies all hunger."

It is the longest bridge in the world.

He too belongs to your father's kingdom. And this land on the other side too.

"Are they my father's guard?" -Yes.

They open the bridge at night so no one will get to the island of green pastures

- This allows us to sleep safely at night. -Why?

-Who lives on the other side? -Kato.

-An evil knight from outside the country. -Kato!

We have to get to the other side. let's go!

-Stop! -Hey, stop!

NO!

Oh no!, fire Miramis!

Stop!

Miramis!

It was like flying. I didn't know Miramis could do that.

It's still not that much, Mia.

-What? What kind of house is this? -I don't know.

Let's check.

Wait here, Miramis.

Mio and Jum-jum, why so late. Come inside.

Do not be afraid. Come inside.

I've been waiting for so many years on the prince and his faithful friend.

Why are you up at night... and you weave

I weave fabrics of dreams. This must be done at night.

Whether it's fabrics of fairy tales or fabrics of dreams they must all be woven at night.

Can I take your coat, Mia? it's worn out.

Why do birds sing like that?

Why?

This bird is a griffin, it sings my child, my daughter.

Someone took it from me.

Who! Who took it from you? Who?

No, don't tell me. I already know.

Please.

-You mustn't say his scary name. -NO ...

The moon will rise soon.

It was Kato.

Every time I heard it's a scary name, i was scared.

And I didn't really know why.

and i didn't know what to do with it?

But when I listened to the singing of the griffin I started to understand what he was singing about --

-Something strange happened to me.

Yum-yum.

I have to go out of the country.

Yes I know.

How could you. Hide it from me until now.

This is known to everyone that you are allowed to go, Mia. Everyone knows.

-All? -Of course.

Griff knows and Nonno knows. His flute sings about it.

and Jiri and all his brothers and sisters.

And the wishing well knows well, too. Everyone knows about it.

And my father, the King?

He always knew.

-He wants me to go? -Yes.

Why me? I'm afraid.

Only male child of royal blood, can defeat the Evil Knight.

Only the king's son.

-Goodbye, yum-yum. I'm going with you.

No. You can't follow me where am i going.

I'm going with you. It has been said: "Royal blood male child" --

"He's riding a white horse with my only friend. "

This prophecy was made thousands of years ago and cannot be changed.

You are my true friend, Jum-jum.

honey. your coat.

Made of the best fabric.

I give it to you to save my daughter. Milli Mani.

Thank you.

You are ready?

Yes. We are.

So we left the country to fight the Evil Knight - Kato

and save Milli Mani, the weaver's daughter, two brothers - Nonna

- Jiris' little sister and all the others the children that Kato kidnapped.

The country on the other side.

This is "The Country on the Other Side". -Let's go!

Cato's Castle.

-You should have a sword. -Yes.

-Ah! Help! -What's that?

I'm so hungry! -It could be a trap.

What if not? Help!

whoever he is we have to find him and help him.

Wait here, Miramis. Do not be afraid.

We will be back soon.

ooh!

take.

Help! Grab me Mia!

-Are you okay? -Yes.

Thanks.

-Help me! -Come.

I'm so hungry!

Help!

Ah! ooh!

I'm hungry!

Aaa ... I'm hungry to death.

Ooh, aaa!

-Don't hurt me! We're not going to hit you.

We heard your scream. You said you were hungry.

We have bread. Take him.

Do not be afraid.

take.

It's... bread...

"bread that satisfies every hunger."

-Why are you here? -To fight the Evil Knight - Kato.

Shh!

Go back where you came from! Come back before it's too late!

NO! I am not going to I came here to fight Kato.

Don't say it out loud. His spies can hear you.

They may be there. Or here.

... Or upstairs. Or wherever. Spies everywhere.

You mean Kato's spies? -Shhh! Stop talking.

Do you want to lose your life?

Whatever you do, trust no one do you hear?

Don't go to any houses.

You think you're among friends. You're wrong.

They will betray you. They will hand you over to him.

Do not trust anyone. Never. You understand?

Even me.

How do you know I don't want to spend you to spies?

-What do you think? I don't know.

But I don't think so.

May not.

There are still a few people left in this land that will not betray you.

Other people too who can forge weapons.

Right. We need weapons.

Mio must have a sword.

-What was that? It was there.

How did he get here? Take to the castle

You said there are still people who can forge weapons.

Go to the swordsmith and tell him --

that I, Eno, sent you to him.

But how do I find it?

Well, in the deepest dungeon, Blackest Mountains.

Go through the dead forest. go now!

Ah...

Yum-yum.

Something must have happened to Miramis.

Come!

Calm him down. -Come on, Jum-yum.

Miramis! - Hush, or they'll catch us too.

Miramis... Miramis.

Don't cry, Mia.

grab him!

We need to find the swordfish. You must have a sword.

Yes, but first we need to get to the Dead Forest.

Poor Miramis. Like now can we get to the swordfish without him?

I wanted to turn back. But I was a king's son, a prince.

And I must go on. To save Miramis and to save all the children kidnapped by Kato.

Yes ...

Now we are in the middle of the Dead Forest.

Yes.

I wonder if the beautiful one will ever be reborn again.

How quiet and gloomy it is.

Wait.

I heard something.

Me too.

It's from there.

No, I think it's from there.

Next! Forward!

Look there. Between the trees.

Cato's spies.

They can't see us.

-Do we have to hide? -No where!

Oh, Jum-jum, what will become of us now!

give! Now! Cut them off!

Behind them!

-They're here somewhere! -They're not there

Mia, look. Here.

Where are they? Where?

They must be here somewhere.

This way.

This tree saved us. I wonder why.

Maybe he hates Kato.

Probably for that killed all the trees in the forest.

I don't think trees ever forgave him for what he had done to them.

Come on, Mia. Now we have to find the swordfish.

Look! It's Blackest Mountain.

-This must be it. -Come.

Now we need to get inside, Jum-jum. Just how are we going to do it?

Come here!

-There are! -Where Where!

Follow me!

-Is there anything? -No, I don't see anyone.

I can not see. We're coming back.

We have to go back.

They can't escape us!

-Where are they! -They are here! This way!

Follow me quickly!

Disperse!

Here!

yum-yum!

Come here!

Forward!

there must be a passage somewhere! -They must have gone somewhere!

We have to catch them! -They were just here.

honey... Now we're inside Blackest Mountain.

Only if ever will we find the swordfish?

deepest cave, in the Blackest Mountains.

That's what Eno said.

Swordfish lives there.

yum-yum!

yum-yum!

Where are you?

Mia!

yum-yum!

yum-yum!

Mia!

yum-yum!

yum-yum!

Mia!

Yum-yum. you are whole.

Yes, and now we've found each other where now?

I don't know. But it does not matter, as long as we're together.

-Who's playing in my cave? - The prince and his companion.

Prince of a Far Land.

Prince Mia. He is the one playing in your cave.

What crystal clear eyebrows. What crystal clear eyes.

And you play so beautifully in my cave.

I want to ask you for a sword. Eno sent me.

-Why do you want a sword? I will fight the Evil Knight Kato.

Death to the Evil Knight!

Death to Kato!

See these swords? ...

They are the best of the best all over the world.

All made by these hands.

for Kato. All swords belong to Kato.

Then why did you shout "Kato's death"?

-Because... No one hates him more than me.

Why are you chained in a cave?

Why don't you melt the chain and you won't run away?

I can't! Because Kato himself made these chains.

The fire is too weak for his chains and a sledgehammer won't break it!

It is not easy break the chain of hate.

-Chain of hate? All Kato's swords.

The smallest sword kills good and innocent.

Kato needs me and my swords.

That's why he keeps me chained day and night in the cave.

But ...

There's one thing he doesn't know.

He doesn't know about it!

For thousands of years, I have forged this sword Only he can pierce Kato's stone.

I graduated last night.

Only last night.

You can't with them kill good and innocent people.

He is there to just kill Kato!

-Why do you have to pierce Kato's stone? Because Kato has a heart of stone.

-I see -Yes. Closed.

He doesn't have a left hand Instead, she has a heart of stone.

Anyone he catches can take out the heart and stick it in.

heart of stone, same as he has.

Give me that sword.

You'll never need it again.

Come.

You see. This is the exit from the cave.

-Too narrow - Too narrow for me, but not for you.

Walk along the stream. It will lead you to the Lake of Death.

You will get further by raft to Kato's castle.

Good luck. Good luck!

Soon, soon, the time will come final battle, with Kato!

Be careful, Prince Mio!

Beware of the Iron Hand!

When you see his iron hand, pierce it with your sword. Otherwise, it may be too late!

We have to climb the rocks. It's the only way to the castle.

Come.

Give me your hand.

Give me a torch. I heard something.

Just a little more.

-Where is the light? -Guardians.

-Here it is. is there anyone.

I don't see anyone.

Shine down. Next!

I told you, there's no one.

I heard something.

Poor little bird.

-Give me another torch -Maybe they're on the other side. Let's check.

Alarm! You saw something!

NO. Nothing.

Has anyone seen anything?

There they can be.

I saw something. -NO. Check there.

and there.

Come on, Jum-yum!

Mia!

yum-yum! Give me your hand!

Kato.

Hello, Prince Mio.

Come!

come!

-Come! -Don't break away!

It is the most dangerous sword I've ever seen in my castle.

He can't kill good and innocent.

What should I do with it?

I will throw him into the Lake of Death.

It is the most dangerous sword in my hand.

What should I do to my enemies?

What should I do to my enemies who come from so far away to kill me?

If I give them the form of a bird? I'll turn my arms into wings --

They will be circling around on the Lake of Death for thousands of thousands of years --

screaming in the wind?

Should I rip their hearts out? and give them hearts of stone?

bringing down their voice from the sky?

I can put them in the tower and let them starve to death.

Yes ... And lock them in the tower.

Starving to death in my castle it only lasts one night

The night is so long hunger is so terrible.

And when the night is over...

... There will be nothing left of Prince Mio and his faithful friend --

just two small piles of white bones.

take them!

seven times seven guards per shift between the tower and my chamber.

When the night is over I'll go to tower to look at the piles of bones.

Goodbye, Prince Mio. goodbye.

Miramis!

Miramis!

To me ...

-Miramis! -Come!

miramis...

Come! Up immediately!

Ah...

Get down!

And you too!

Roar as much as you want. Nobody will hear you.

When the night is over, it won't stay nothing left of us but a pile of white bones.

He doesn't want to die. I'd like return to the island of green pastures.

to my father. Now, I will never see him again.

or Miramis.

I'm tired.

And hungry.

I've never been so hungry.

I'm too hungry.

If only we had left some bread "who satisfies every hunger."

Mia! Mia, where are you?

-Here. -Where?

I am here next to you.

I can not see you?

You really scared me! What happened? Where have you been hiding?

It's the new coat was woven like this

that when I put it on inside out I become invisible. Look!

If you get to the door you can pass the guards --

-You will wear an invisible cloak and thus you will escape to the Far Land.

Yes, but then what will become of you, Jum-jum?

I will stay here. There is only one invisible cape.

I'll just leave my only friend anyway. I'd rather die with him.

my sword!

Now I can fight Kato. But what about the doors, are they locked?

As you pass seven times seven guards on the way to Kato's chamber?

My sword will break the locks And my cloak will hide me from the guards.

And if I don't, I'll be back in my last thoughts i will be with you.

and my father.

Good luck, Mia.

Good luck.

-I heard a creak. -I have a lot of creaks

Turn around, Kat! Your time! it has come!

You must attack me, Prince Mio.

hit And finally stab me.

I've known for a long time that moment will come.

But remember Prince Mio, Even if you kill me --

you will not destroy evil anyway.

Another Kato will arise and the next, and the next.

And what can you do? Nothing. Let me live.

Take your faithful friend.

And ride out of here on a white horse home to my father.

He's waiting for you.

Come back before it's too late.

Oh no! I have come here to destroy you

And even if you kill me Another prince will come here

and the next, and the next.

Therefore, you must die.

I'm free at last my heart of stone.

It's been bothering me for so long.

The spell has been broken. Everyone was there.

There were no more birds. They were free.

The weaver got her daughter back. Nonno two brothers.

sister Jiris. And all other children kidnapped by Kato.

What did I tell you? "This is the time of the last battle with Kato."

I did not say? And I was right! Right, Prince Mio?

Look, look! Now it's growing. He grew up in the Dead Forest.

I found him. I knew you'd make it!

Dad!

honey.

My Mio.

Now that it's been awhile I am in a distant land.

I wonder what Edla's aunt and uncle Sixten said when I didn't come home.

I cared so little for them.

They probably didn't even notice that I'm gone.

Edla may think I am sitting on a bench in the park.

But he is wrong. I'm not on the bench.

Because I am here in a Far Land.

Together with my father whom I love so much--

and who loves me so much.

Yes Sir. Because William Olssen is in a distant land.

And he is very very happy together with his father.

king.

For Michael... my nephew

PNX

Through the rose garden

with silver poplars

I'm going with my father

I hold his hand tight

And from the tallest trees

I hear the bird of sorrow

He sings about the cruel

world outside the country.

And my heart trembled

When I heard my father's voice... calling:

Mio, my Mio

Over the rose garden

dusk falls

And I see my bird

circling in the sky

his broad wings

they carry him straight to the sky

He flew in the dark

to the outside world

And my heart trembled

When I heard my father's voice... calling:

Mio, my Mio
