With fairy-tale inhabitants, everything is the same as with people - when a marriage breaks up, Resentment remains... That is the name of the daughter of the powerful magicians Bolotnitsa and Chernogor, who divorced but continue to share power over the child. On the day of Resentment's coming of age, it turns out that she is deprived of the magical power that was supposed to be inherited from her parents. To fix the situation, Resentment urgently needs to find a groom in the human world, have a wedding and sacrifice the person - turn him into a tree... Together with Resentment, her mysterious friend, Chudo Yudo, goes to the human world. He can transform into anyone: a bird, an animal, and even a handsome prince.
