- The opening scene of the movie describes it best: "Once upon a time there lived in Denmark a great storyteller named Hans Christian Andersen. This is not the story of his life, but a fairy tale about the great spinner of fairy tales."
- A fictionalized account of the young life of Hans Christian Andersen, a young man with a penchant for storytelling but struggles to find his place in the world and gain the affection of the woman he adores. Interspersed throughout are brief interludes of the stories that will make Hans famous (The Nightingale, The Little Mermaid and The Snow Queen to name a few), which are intertwined with the events that surround his own life.

- From "The Little Mermaid" to "The Snow Queen", Hans Christian Andersen has left behind a rich collection of stories tinged with magic, but also with tragedy, which have kept a place of honor, from generation to generation, in children's libraries and the collective imagination. At the antipodes of the Grimm brothers' optimistic folk tales, the melancholy of his stories, sometimes crowned with a desperate end, speaks true to children and their parents alike. His tales, whose contemporary popularity also owes much to Disney, earned him immense fame from his maturity, beyond the borders of his native Denmark, even if the rest of his work (he was also a playwright, poet, novelist and short story writer) was hardly successful.
