Beauty and the Beast of Paradise Lost
落園の美女と野獣
Synopsis
Beauty and the Beast retelling: Belle confronts the forest beast who killed her mother, uncovering darker truths.
Rumors of a beast hunting for beautiful women do not deter the young Belle from entering the nearby forest. The rowdy child is not afraid of going into the woods despite her mother’s warnings, as the forbidden area contains red roses that complement her exceptional violet hair. But Belle's life takes a sudden turn when a horrific creature appears before her and her mother, who sacrifices her life to protect her daughter. Traumatized and overcome by grief, Belle's father blames her and confines her inside their home. Five years later, still barred from leaving her room, Belle works as a seamstress to support her father. Just as she begins to get accustomed to her new reality, she senses a commotion and hears the beast's carriage arrive, her mind wandering back to the tragedy. Belle escapes, determined to confront the monster who took her mother’s life—but little does she know that she will soon discover who the true beast of the woods is.
