The story

In the kingdom of Russia, its ruler Tsar Nicolai finds his daughter, Princess Alexeya, is unwilling to marry any suitors presented to her, despite their gifts to her father. One day, to his surprise, she declares she will only marry a man if they can bring her father a ship that can fly, which the Czar joyfully agrees to. Word of this proposal is spread across the kingdom, which presents an opportunity to two young men - Sergei and Boris - to convince their father, a poor woodsman, and their mother, to finance their journey to honor this request.
