A princess of noble birth, Snow White
is forced into rags as a scullery maid by her jealous
stepmother, the Queen. Blessed with an innocent's indomitable
spirit, the fair maiden never loses faith that one day the
wishing well will grant her wish for a true love to come and
take her away. When her dream is answered by a serenading young
prince, the evil Queen orders Snow White killed. Faced with the
girl's innocence, the huntsman assassin can't kill her, and begs
her to flee deep into the forest, never to return. Once again
her innocence saves her as the forest animals lead her to the
Seven Dwarfs' cottage, where she takes the role of their adopted
mother (even the woman-wary Grumpy can't help but warm to her
eventually). The Queen, however, will use the girl's naiveté
against her as she dons the guise of a helpless peddler hag to
lure Snow White into taking a bite from a poisoned apple.
Falling into a sleeping death, Snow White can only be awakened
by love's first kiss.
