ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

A Village Romeo and Juliet

Okay, kiddo, so you know how in some stories there are two people who are really in love but their families don't like each other? That's kind of what "A Village Romeo and Juliet" is about.

There's a boy named Sali and a girl named Vrenchen who live in a small village in Switzerland. They really like each other and want to be together, but their families have been fighting for a long time and don't let them see each other.

One day, Sali and Vrenchen decide to run away and be together. They go to a fair and have a lot of fun, but eventually they have to go back home. When their families find out what they did, they're very angry and don't want them to be together.

Things get even worse when a rich man named Manz comes to the village and starts to like Vrenchen. Sali gets jealous and thinks Vrenchen likes Manz more than him, but it turns out Vrenchen is still in love with Sali.

In the end, things don't work out for Sali and Vrenchen. I won't tell you exactly what happens, but it's a sad story about how sometimes love isn't enough to make things right when people can't get along.
