A little boy receives twenty-five tin soldiers, all cast from the same old spoon. One of them has only one leg, but he stands as proudly as the others. Across the room, he notices a beautiful paper ballerina standing on one leg and falls quietly in love with her.
Through a series of strange accidents, the soldier falls from the window and is carried away into the streets. He travels through dark places, encounters danger, and eventually finds himself inside a fish. Even after being swallowed and carried far from home, he remains brave and faithful to his love. When he finally returns, fate brings him back to the ballerina, though their story ends with the same bittersweet tenderness that follows him throughout his journey.
