Fox cubs Rosseel and Reinardine grow up without a father. He has been gone for so long that they can hardly remember him. According to their mother, he was a hero. When the fox cubs are caught stealing a sausage by Bruun the Bear, it turns out that Bruun knew their father Reynaert very well. He tells the fox cubs stories about him, although in his stories, their father isn’t a hero, but a cunning fox. Could that be true?
