Synopsis

In a world of sparkle and shine, one precious girl gets less than she bargained for when her brand new unicorn playmate is delivered to her door.

REVIEW

This animated short plays like a Barbie cartoon gone awry. Everything is pink and purple and shiny in the world when a young girl receives a large package tied up with a pretty bow. Instead of the whimsical, beautiful unicorn that she is expecting, it's a small, blue, unfortunate-looking critter. Naturally she is repulsed. But her cruel judgmentalism is revealed as a flaw when the ugly creature ends up rescuing her from an unpleasant set of circumstances.
