A young woman marries the King and becomes Queen, striving to fill her heart with love and purpose as she forms a genuine bond with her stepdaughter, Snow. Haunted by her harsh childhood—particularly her father, a cruel mirror-maker—she finds solace in a magic mirror that holds her father’s spirit. As isolation deepens, the Queen becomes dependent on the mirror’s affirmation, her need to be “fairest of all” growing obsessive. When whispers of Snow’s increasing beauty reach her, envy and fear consume her, pushing her toward dark magic and tragedy. The Queen’s transformation from grieving widow and caring stepmother to a power-obsessed sorceress reveals the tragic shadow behind her cruelty.
