Their father, King Alberto, cannot bear the idea of the princesses ever being in danger and decides his daughters must be kept safe at all costs. Those costs include their lessons, their possessions and, most importantly, their freedom.

And so, with little but wits and ingenuity to rely on, Frida and her sisters begin their fight to be allowed to live .
