Why does the plot of the opera sound so much like The Swan Princess? The fl has the same name too

Because it is, both the movie and the opera are referencing a ballet concert with the name "Swan Lake", the piece was made by a russian guy, he started doing the choreography and song at 1875 to only be published and presented in 1877, it's story became so popular it's known to be a ballet classic and also was majorly popularized by the movie, since before that, only elites, historians and ballerinas knew of this

I kinda wish they didn’t have to go back to the mountain if possible
