The story:
Once upon a time there was a beautiful prince whose handsome visage hid his ugly soul... Chosen as heir to the throne, he must learn the true meaning of love and compassion. A fairy puts him to the ultimate test and transforms him into a hideous beast. A light is supposed to remind him to open his heart to humans - but with every flicker, the chance of reversing the curse dwindles... So it seems hopeless until the courageous Bella ventures out of her quiet village into the enchanted castle to rescue her impoverished father. Only if she manages to develop true love for the prince despite his appearance can the curse be broken. Will she be able to open the beast's closed heart and reverse the curse with the power of true love?
