Discover the tale of the lovestruck boy sent into Hell to steal 3 hairs from the Devil to appease his true love's father, the king.
--
In a small town, a proud mother showed off her newborn son. Upon noticing his lucky birthmark, townsfolk predicted he would marry a princess. But soon, these rumors reached the wicked king. Enraged, the king stole the child away, and sent him hurtling down the river. But the infant’s luck proved greater than the king’s plan. Iseult Gillespie tells the tale of the boy’s journey to meet the Devil.
Lesson by Iseult Gillespie, directed by Lucija Bužančić.

This sounds like a simplified version of a czech fairytale - Tři zlaté vlasy děda Vševěda (grandpa All-Know's three golden hair). It's basically the same with a lot of detail, a fairy godmother who said he'll marry the princess and also changed the letter... Also more info about how he grew up and a name Plaváček - plavat means to swim and the rest is just a suffix signifying it's a mans name. Some old villagers found him and called him that since they found him swimming in the water in a cradle.

interminable doesn't mean its by definition inescapable. Interminable just means the task itself has no end, with no assumption about your involvement or lack thereof. As shown in the video, it can be handed off to someone else while still being interminable

I think it's conviction. The man didn't have all the answers but knew he still had to complete these tasks. He tries to help the people or beings that he meets and even better he keeps his word. He does return, he does find a solution for these people's problems.
