Synopsis / あらすじ
[English / 英語] In the vibrant Barbieland, every day is perfect—until “Stereotypical Barbie” is suddenly struck by an existential crisis, manifesting as intrusive thoughts of death and the unthinkable reality of flat feet. To restore her perfect life, she embarks on a journey to the Real World, accompanied by a lovestruck Ken. There, she encounters Gloria and her daughter Sasha, whose human struggles ripple into Barbie’s world. Meanwhile, Ken discovers the concept of patriarchy and brings it back to Barbieland, turning it into his own “Kendom.” To save her home, Barbie must navigate the chaos of the transformed Barbieland while discovering the true, imperfect meaning of being human. The film poses essential questions: What is the cost of perfection? What defines our identity? And how do we embrace the beautiful mess of being ourselves?
[Japanese / 日本語] すべてが完璧な毎日が繰り返されるバービーランド。しかし、「ステレオタイプ・バービー」はある日突然、死への思考や扁平足といった「完璧ではない」実存的危機に見舞われます。その原因を突き止めるため、彼女はケンを伴って現実世界へと旅立ちます。そこで出会ったのは、現実の生活に葛藤する母グロリアと娘のサーシャでした。一方、現実世界で「家父長制」を知ったケンは、その思想をバービーランドに持ち帰り、自分たちの楽園を塗り替えてしまいます。変わり果てた故郷を救うため、そして「人間であること」の真の意味を見出すため、バービーの自分探しの戦いが始まります。映画は私たちに問いかけます。「完璧」とは何か。「アイデンティティ」とはどこにあるのか。そして、ありのままの自分をいかにして受け入れるのか。
