The synopsis of the film reads:
《勇敢传说》 is set in the mystical Scottish Highlands, where Mérida is the princess of a kingdom ruled 由 King Fergus and 皇后乐队 Elinor. An unruly daughter and an accomplished archer, Mérida one 日 defies a sacred custom of the land and inadvertently brings turmoil to the kingdom. In an attempt to set things right, Mérida seeks out an eccentric old Wise Woman and is granted an ill-fated wish. Also figuring into Mérida’s quest — and serving as comic relief — are the kingdom’s three lords: the enormous Lord MacGuffin, the surly Lord Macintosh, and the disagreeable Lord Dingwall.
