Housework, sewing, ironing: just like in the classic fairy tale, her stepmother and two stepsisters spare poor Cinderella nothing, and she endures the drudgery while dreaming of Prince Charming… A few days before the grand annual ball in honor of the Prince, the young girl comes across an advertisement in a magazine: an exceptional fairy godmother who offers everything she needs to go to the ball. Cinderella takes the plunge, but goes from disappointment to disappointment… The dress is awful, the carriage is very strange, and the slippers are hairy! At the ball, she takes part in a dance competition and accidentally sends one of her hairy slippers flying through the air. It lands… on the Prince’s head, who falls under the girl’s spell. They dance a languid slow dance together, but the Prince, who is megalomaniacal and unpleasant, turns out to be charming in name only… Very disappointed and a little angry, Cinderella decides to take matters into her own hands and becomes a dragon slayer!
