THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME:
In 15th century Paris, Clopin the puppeteer tells the story of Quasimodo, the
misshapen gentle-souled bell ringer of Notre Dame, who was nearly killed as a
baby by Claude Frollo, the Minister of Justice. But Frollo was forced by the
Archdeacon of Notre Dame to raise Quasimodo as his own. Now a young man,
Quasimodo is hidden from the world by Frollo in the belltower of the cathedral.
But during the Festival of Fools, Quasimodo, cheered on by his gargoyle friends
Victor, Hugo, and Laverne, decides to take part in the festivities, where he
meets the lively gypsy girl Esmeralda and the handsome soldier Phoebus. The
three of them find themselves ranged against Frollo's cruelty and his attempts
to destroy the home of the gypsies, the Court of Miracles. And Quasimodo must
desperately defend both Esmeralda and the very cathedral of Notre Dame.
THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME 2: THE SECRET OF THE BELL:
Now that Frollo is gone, Quasimodo rings the bell with the help of his new
friend and Esmeralda's and Phoebus' little son, Zephyr. But when Quasi stops by
a traveling circus owned by evil magician Sarousch, he falls for Madellaine,
Sarouch's assistant. But greedy Sarousch forces Madellaine to help him steal
the Cathedral's most famous bell.
