Synopsis: | The King has a splendid new suit -- the Queen and all their subjects agree. The problem? Not even he can see it. This large-cast adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's classic The Emperor's New Clothes is a funny and fast-paced parable about pride, self-delusion, and self-love. | |||||
