Big-screen adaptation of Stephen Sondheim's Broadway hit, featuring an ensemble cast who bring a host of fairy tale favourites to life.

As a childless baker and his wife search for their happily ever after, Cinderella looks to escape the wrath of her wicked stepmother. An unassuming Red Riding Hood skips to the bakery to buy her grandmother some bread, whilst a pre-beanstalk era Jack just wants his cow to give him some milk. As their paths begin to cross, the characters realise that they will have to help each other out if they want their dreams to become a reality.
