Beauty

Which girl has the courage to kiss a frog, a snake or a bear? These are no cuddly toys, these beasts. They are dirty, sticky, too large or too fat. In short: really repulsive. But sometimes you have to get on with it. If need be, with your eyes closed. When your father is in danger. When a rose has been plucked. When a promise has been made. Then you’ll have to do it, you’ll have no choice. Then you will become a hero in an inevitable love story.

Running after their golden ball, a group of girls gets lost. They encounter malicious midgets and benevolent bears. And they must complete impossible tasks: pick strawberries in the snow, sleep next to a dark pool and dance for hours on the moss. And they have to keep searching for the beast that is actually the prince.
