The Seventh Dwarf (German: Der 7bte Zwerg) is a fun German 3D computer-animated movie from 2014. This film brings together characters from the classic fairy tales of Sleeping Beauty and Snow White.
It is actually the first animated movie in a series. The earlier films were 7 Dwarves – Men Alone in the Wood (2004) and 7 Dwarves: The Forest Is Not Enough (2006). The movie first came out in Germany on September 25, 2014. Later, it was released in the United States on July 31, 2015. Sadly, one of the directors, Harald Siepermann, passed away in February 2013 while the movie was still being made.
The Story of The Seventh Dwarf
The movie's story begins at a big party in Fantabularasa castle. Everyone is celebrating Princess Rose's 18th birthday. But there's a problem: an evil ice fairy named Dellamorta cursed the princess. If Rose gets pricked by a sharp object before midnight, the whole kingdom will fall asleep for 100 years!
To keep her safe, Princess Rose has to wear special armor. Everything seems to be going well until Bobo, who is the seventh and most clumsy dwarf, makes a huge mistake. Because of his accident, Dellamorta's curse comes true.
The only way to break the curse is with a kiss of true love. However, Dellamorta captures Jack, the Kitchen Boy, who is in love with Rose. Now, the dwarves must team up with a friendly dragon named Burner. Together, they go on an exciting adventure to find "Prince Charming" and save their kingdom.
