Odette, the beautiful princess, lives upon the lake with her courtiers. They have all been magically conjured into swans by Rothbart, the evil magician. His spell can only be broken by true love. Until that happens, the girls can only be in human form from midnight until dawn. Siegfried, the young Prince is hunting in the forest with his companions. He takes aim at a graceful swan, just as the clock is striking midnight and he sees Odette the swan regaining her human form. They fall in love in a... trice. Odile, the magician’s daughter, observes this blossoming love affair with jealousy
