The official synopsis for the film reads:
“King Midas is visited by an elf; the elf turns his cat to gold, then claps his hands, and it changes back. Midas begs for the golden touch, but the elf warns him it will be a curse to him. Midas insists. He dances about joyfully at first but discovers the drawbacks when he sits down to dinner. Fearing death by starvation, he summons the elf and agrees to surrender everything he owns to have the curse lifted.”
