In a castle in the midst of a forest full of goblins, grey gnomes, and wild female spirits, Ronja is born on a stormy night as the daughter of a robber chief. Almost simultaneously, a lightning bolt strikes and splits the walls. On one side of the hellish chasm that now separates the castle, Ronja grows up with her father Mattis and mother Lovis under the protection of their rough but loving band. Quickly, the Borka clan – the arch-enemies of the Mattis robbers – has settled cheekily and uninvited on the other half of the castle. But as Ronja grows older, she becomes friends with Birk, the son of the leader of the rival Borka clan. The two robber children find themselves caught between the fronts of their stubborn fathers and learn to make choices that allow their friendship to triumph over their families' enmity.

Astrid Lindgren's RONJA RÄUBERTOCHTER tells of the possibility of discovering the world with one's own eyes and the strength of being able to rely on others. Filled with robber songs from around the world, this year's family piece for the Christmas season transports us into Ronja's wild, magical cosmos full of curiosity, courage, hope, and the certainty that we can overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges.
