When Elsa, daughter of the late duke of Brabant, is accused of murdering her missing brother, no one steps forth to defend her. Then, in answer to her prayers, a shining knight arrives in a boat pulled by a swan. He offers himself as her champion, and as her husband as well, but on one condition: She must never ask his name or where he came from. Retold from the opera "Lohengrin" by Richard Wagner.
