Siegfried, the Dragon Slayer

The Song of the Nibelungs is a epic poem about Siegfried, the dragon slayer. Fafnir, guardian of the cursed gold horde of the Nibelung people, is the one slayed by Siegfried's hand. Our hero's journey is very trying as he not only must overcome physical challenges, but moral ones as well. The sin of man however is what leads to the tragic end of this tale. Siegfried battles worthy opponents and faces the fears that come before them. A betrayal reveals unfortunate events that trickle down to the very end of our hero's life.

Video contents are from the 2005 movie 'Siegfried' - I've attempted to find the company website but have had no luck.

This was a university project during which we explored Mythology and character archetypes.

@AleXX1995XX It was shown on North American TV under the title 'Dark Kingdom'. I think in the UK it was released as 'Curse of the Ring'. I hope that's helpful.
