The story so far
Everything you need before watchingBarbie ducks the Mattel box with a bathroom excuse. The CEO and his men chase her over cubicles until she falls into a quiet kitchen. An old woman named Ruth pours tea and says she thinks best at kitchen tables. Barbie cannot drink it, then explains her messy hair: she usually looks perfect. Ruth says she is just right. Watch a doll treat ordinary life as a skill she never learned, and a creator call that gap marvelous.
