Film Synopsis

Scaling the Cliffs of Insanity, Battling Rodents of Unusual Size, Facing torture in the Pit of Despair - True love wasn't meant to be easy!

A young boy, bedridden with the flu, is less than thrilled when his grandfather arrives to read aloud the book, "The Princess Bride", which recounts the adventures of Buttercup, the most beautiful woman in the world, and Westley, the man she loves, in the fairytale kingdom of Florin.

The old grandfather promises everything. "Fencing. Fighting. Torture. Revenge. Giants. Bad men. Best men. Monsters of all shapes and sizes. Chases. Escapes. True love. Miracles." And as all this comes to life before the boy's enchanted eyes, his relationship with his grandfather deepens as well.
