A vibrant, musically-driven animated adventure about an idealistic young woman and a magical star confronting a corrupt king, built on themes of hope, friendship, and the power of individual will.

Asha, a sharp-witted idealist, makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic force – a little ball of boundless energy called Star. Together, Asha and Star confront a most formidable foe - the ruler of Rosas, King Magnifico - to save her community and prove that when the will of one courageous human connects with the magic of the stars, wondrous things can happen.
