Hans Christian Andersen. Die Reise seines Lebens

A carriage is speeding towards Copenhagen. Travelling in it are the girl Elsa, her mother, and another passenger, who introduces himself as Hans Christian Andersen. A lively conversation quickly develops between Elsa and Andersen. He tells her about the ‘fairy tale of his life’, or more precisely, about how the son of a humble shoemaker became a celebrated writer.
