Princess Maja and the Zmaj

The world of a small kingdom in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains is turned upside down when the evil Lord Andrej imprisons Princess Maja's parents and leaves her alone to reclaim her kingdom. In a desperate attempt to save her parents and her people, the brave young princess teams up with the legendary protector of her kingdom, the half-transformed zmaj, Spiridon, and the mysterious star dragon, Bogdan.

Together, they embark on a quest to find her estranged uncle, a betyar hiding with his bandits in the far mountains. With danger lurking around every corner, Maja and her allies must find the strength and courage to dispel Lord Andrej's lies and rescue the kingdom from his dark ways.
