'Tijl Uilenspiegel in Vlaanderen' Summary
Tijl Uilenspiegel, a mischievous rogue and folk hero, roams the 16th-century Netherlands, using his wit and cunning to outsmart those in power and bring joy to the common folk. He's accompanied by his loyal, good-natured friend Lamme Goedzak and his love interest Nele.
