The official story of Hans Christian Andersen's parentage is that he was the son of a humble shoemaker and a washer woman. Why then did he from his early youth on enjoy the patronage of the royal retinue of the King of Denmark, most especially that of King Christian II, whom he looked exactly like besides sharing his Christian "Christian" name? This kind-hearted documentary winningly seeks to establish that Andersen was sired by the King when he was an unmarried Prince and was raised by a good common local family to whom the child was entrusted after his baptism at the royal family's parish. A childhood filled with awkwardness and persecution for not being like the other boys and girls, and later like the other men and women of his day, was made bright by the insistant and continual support of all royalty and their retinue of Denmark, as well as by neighboring royal domains. His beloved story "The Ugly Duckling" is an example of how his own personal pain in acknowledging what he truly was became through his pen a fairy tale instruction to others in how to become unashamedly themselves; let it be an instruction to you and to your noble worthy loved ones!

Hans Christian Andersen, often referred to in Scandinavia as H. C. Andersen, prolific writer of plays, travelogues, novels and poems, best remembered for his fairy tales (April 2, 1805 - August 4, 1875) was born in Odense, Denmark. Andersen's popularity is not limited to children; his stories express themes that transcend age and nationality. Andersen's fairy tales, of which no fewer than 3381 works have been translated into more than 125 languages, have become culturally embedded in the West's collective consciousness, readily accessible to children, but presenting lessons of virtue and resilience in the face of adversity for mature readers as well. Some of his most famous fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling", "Thumbelina", The Princess And The Pea", and many others. His stories have inspired ballets, plays, and animated and live-action films. There is much evidence to suggest that Andersen was an illegitimate son of King Christian VIII of Denmark. One of Copenhagen's widest and busiest boulevards is labeled "H.C. Andersens Boulevard".
