A prince, who lives in the father’s royal palace in a cold and foggy northern country, is sick, and the doctors inform the king that his disease is incurable. At the end the king realizes that what the son wants is a ray of sunshine. The astronomers work hard with their instruments looking for the sun uselessly, it will appear only when it is ready. While the demoralized prince lies in his dark room, the ray of sunshine enters and roams around the room. Finally brought back to life, the prince, glimpsing the face of a beautiful woman among the bright rays, calls his attendants and leaves on a sled pulled by penguins, searching for the evocative vision.
