โฆ Synopsis
These hilarious adaptations of classic bedtime stories satirise the modern proclivity to all sexist, racist, culturist, nationalist, ageist, sizeist, ethnocentrist and phallocentrist bias and reflect a more enlightened sensibility. The Emperor is not naked in his new clothes but "is endorsing a clothing-optional lifestyle". Snow White escapes to the cottage of "seven vertically-challenged men", while Goldilocks is an ambitious scientist studying anthropomorphic bears. Fourteen timeless fairy tales are purged of the influence of a flawed and insensitive cultural past to become tales that are a must for all who pride themselves on being socially aware.
