Synopsis
"Mirror, mirror on the wall who's the fairest of them all?" The Wicked Queen knows that the looking glass will always answer, "you are." But one day, the magic mirror has something new to say: Snow White, the Queen's stepdaughter, has grown into the most beautiful woman in the land. Enraged by this news, the Wicked Queen orders one of her underlings to murder the girl. But the assassin does not have the heart to hurt such a lovely and innocent creature. Instead, he tells Snow White of the Queen's evil plot, and urges her to escape. Frightened by the news, Snow White flees the castle and finds a new home with a family of gold-mining dwarfs. But her jealous stepmother possesses powers that may still bring harm to the sweet and generous girl...
