A djinn, poisoned dates, seven dwarf sisters-in-faith, and a mysterious old peddler woman in the woods wearing a face veil, a hateful and vain stepmother, a considerate huntsman, and a charming prince bring to life once again the classic fairy tale of Snow White.

After Snow White's parents die she finds herself alone with a stepmother whose vanity is only matched by her wickedness. When the stepmother's jinn reveals that Snow White is the 'fairest of them all,' she starts plotting agains her. To survive, Snow White must escape the devious plans of her poisonous stepmother, who will not stop until she is dead. This lyrically-told tale of flight, friendship and forgiveness, also includes seven dwarf sister-in-faith, a considerate huntsman and a charming prince.
