Das singende klingende Bäumchen
**Das singende, klingende Bäumchen** ("The Singing, Ringing Tree") is a fairy tale—collected by the Brothers Grimm and famously adapted as a 1957 East German (DEFA) film—about a prince who must retrieve a magical tree that sings and glitters to win a princess's love; when he fails, he is cursed into an ugly form until he learns selflessness and true love.
