In the land of King Dobromil honest labour, decency, honesty and respect among people has become a thing of the past. Instead the country is gradually succumbing to Hell's force and, thus, those who have some remnants of decency prefer to flee. Slightly befuddled herbalist Apollonia has a dream that the land is rescued by an unknown 'saviour' who arrives with on an ass and marries Annie, the king's daughter. But who will believe this mad herbalist with her 'magical' herbs that often cause more chaos than benefit? When things are at their worst in the country, the king signs his soul away to Hell and the Government is taken over by his base Minister. At this time there arrives in the Kingdom an inconspicuous happy dreamer Philip. When Apollonia sees him coming with an ass she is convinced that he is the right miraculous saviour. Nobody has an inkling that he is the Prince from the neighbouring Kingdom. And Philip really manages to save the land from Hell, but not through using any magical tricks but because of his genuine love for Annie, his courage, humour and, maybe also, a dose of cheek in standing up to the all-powerful Lucifer.
