Medieval Highland Scotland. Merida, an atypical young princess, would rather perfect her archery skills than accept the burden of royal obligations to become a queen. After all, love seldom blesses arranged marriages. As a result, rebellious Merida flees the castle in a fit of pique, only to enter the enchanted dark forest, the home of a powerful local witch. While looking for a way out of her predicament, Merida unwisely uses a potent magical incantation. However, to change your destiny, you must first transform from within. Will Merida face the grievous consequences of her decision and take responsibility for her actions?—Nick Riganas
