There are evil witches not only in fairy tale. After father’s death Vika lives together with her stepmother Sofia. All the time they are hard up. So they sublet one room of their flat to Sofia’s niece. But the supposed lovely girl turns out to be a tyrannical cow, who treats Vika like a servant maid. Sofia’s domineering sister stirs her up to get the beautiful big flat.

But also reality has its magic. Vika becomes cinderella and the prince isn‘t missing as well. (source: Schlingel Chemnitz 2004)
