The Story
Barbie tells the magical tale of Clara, a kind-hearted girl who receives a Nutcracker doll as a Christmas gift.
At midnight…
The toy comes to life.
Clara is magically shrunk and pulled into a fantasy world at war with the Mouse King.
To break the spell and restore peace, she must journey to the Sugarplum Princess.
But along the way, Clara discovers something important:
The princess she’s searching for…
Is herself.
