Synopsis

Ella, a young woman living under the oppressive rule of her evil stepmother, Antoinette, and her two stepsisters, Georgina and Ursula, receives a surprising invitation to the prince’s birthday party. Despite her stepmother’s attempts to prevent her from attending, a Fairy Nightclubber helps Ella prepare and sends her off to the nightclub in a magical limousine. At the party, Ella captivates everyone, including the Prince, who later reveals his true identity as a Minotaur. The Minotaur-Prince kidnaps Ella, intending to use her in his grand plan for domination. However, Ella’s cleverness and courage enable her to escape and rescue the real Prince, ultimately leading to the downfall of the Minotaur and a reversal of fortunes for her cruel stepfamily
