The story tells of little Marie who dreams of a real Christmas present, but instead she gets a nutcracker in the form of a soldier in a beautiful uniform. The dream come true after all – while sleeping Marie is in a magic kingdom where she dances in the arms of her Prince Nutcracker. She experiences wonderful adventures, meets a king and a queen, mice and a whole army of tin soldiers. Her dolls show charming dances from Spain, China, Russia, France, and at the end they all dance a happy final waltz.
