The story of Cinderella
First conceived as a folktale in the middle ages, Cinderella is the story of a cruelly deposed daughter, working as a servant for her wicked stepmother following the death of her beloved father. When a grand Royal ball approaches, her wish to go is granted by a kindly Fairy Godmother who transforms her from maid to princess for one night only.

Love, magic, and hope intertwine as he pursues the mystery woman throughout the land.
