Beauty and the Beast

Once upon a time…

This is a tragic love story that becomes a surreal vision of death, desire, and beauty. A gentle-hearted beast falls for a simple, beautiful girl, who is drawn to him despite his repellent yet fascinating nature. To test her fidelity, he gives her a key, telling her that if she does not return it by a specific time, he will die of grief. She is unable to return it on time, but it is then revealed that the Beast is the genuinely handsome one.
