The passage from this world to the fantasy kingdom of Stormhold is
through a breech in a wall beside an English village. In the 1800s, a
boy becomes a man when he ventures through the breech in pursuit of a
fallen star, to prove his love for the village beauty. The star is no
lump of rock, it's a maiden, Yvaine. Tristan, the youth, is not the
only one looking for her: three witches, led by Lamia, want her heart
to make them young; and, the sons of the dead king of Stormhold want
her because she holds a ruby that will give one of them title to the
throne. Assisting Tristan are his mother, the victim of a spell, and a
transvestite pirate of the skies. Will Tristan win his true love? View IMDB Profile Tagline: This summer a star falls. The chase begins |
