Plot

After her jealous stepmother, the Queen (Diana Rigg), tries to have her killed, Snow White (Sarah Patterson) runs away into the forest, where she finds refuge with seven kindly dwarfs. The years pass but when the Queen discovers Snow White is still alive, she attempts to destroy her rival with the help of clever disguises. The Queen uses a tight bodice, a poison comb, and finally a poison apple in her attempts to kill Snow White. After tasting the poisoned apple, Snow White lies in a state of sleep until she is later woken by a handsome Prince. Some time later, the Queen receives an invitation to the Prince's wedding. As the Queen arrives, she finds none other than Snow White walking down the aisle as the bride.
