Cinderella Is Dead

In a future where the story of Cinderella has taken a dark turn, the world has transformed into one where fairy tales are not just fantasies but mandates. Set 200 years after the beloved tale, a repressive society now compels young women to participate in an annual ball, where they must attempt to win the approval of a group of suitors. It’s a ritual steeped in tradition, but for these girls, it means losing their freedom and autonomy, as they are judged not for who they are but for how well they fit into the mold of the past.

Among them is a brave young woman who questions the obedience expected of her and dreams of a life beyond the confines of this repressive culture. As she grapples with the expectations placed upon her and the haunting legacy of Cinderella, she seeks the courage to forge her own path, challenging the narrative that has held her society captive. Along her journey, she discovers the power of rebellion, friendship, and the importance of rewriting her own story in a world that longs to silence her.
