Synopsis: Tale as old as time… or is it? Belle feels unseen and unheard in her small-town village, surrounded by influencer-obsessed neighbours who don’t quite get her bookish charm. But when her absent-minded father stumbles into an enchanted castle and is captured by an ancient Beast cursed by his own ego, Belle’s life takes a wildly magical turn. Saving her dad, she’s thrown into a world of talking teapots, overdramatic oddments , and a love story where a clock and candelabra learn to glow in harmony. With rose petals falling, household staff slowly turning into décor, and Gaston, Selly Oak’s biggest ego, plotting to “rescue” her for the clout, Belle must save the day and understand what true beauty really means before the love, the tale, and one very messy castle is torn apart.
