It's the Nutcracker, like never before! Meet Clara. She's not much of a dancer, but she knows how to throw a mean right hook. And as it turns out, she's an exact doppelganger of Marie, a princess kidnapped by the evil Rat King, who's also turned the Prince of the Land of Sweets into a nutcracker. To regain his throne, the Nutcracker asks Clara to stand in for Marie, but her princess credentials are put to the test. Now, time is running out to save the kingdom.
