In the mysterious docks of Naples, in a not too distant future, the Chief of Police and the King contend for the territory and a very special girl: Cinderella. Cinderella, oppressed by her family, servant to her stepsisters, lives in a dramatic setting of injustice, illegal trades, ambiguity, greed and rivalry.  An intense need of revenge against the king - the one who murdered her father when she was a child - is growing inside her. Until the night of the great ball.

Cinderella the Cat is an intense, dark sci-fi adventure based on the classic fairytale.
