The story
The fairytale of Rumpelstilzkin told in a new and unique way: since the beginning of time, people have been inventing stories, spinning yarns, mixing truth and fantasy and lying through their teeth, spinning straw to gold. But how can we escape from the network of suspicion, shows of power and the wish to impress? The lies of the miller's wife, the actions of the queen, and the things the miller's son cannot confess out of love and shame can only be turned into a true love story by further spinning of yarns.
