The video is a read-aloud of 'King Midas and the Golden Touch' by Mr. Paul. It tells the story of King Midas, who loves gold more than anything except his daughter, Aurelia. Midas is granted a wish by a magical stranger to turn everything he touches into gold. Initially thrilled, Midas soon realizes the curse of his wish when he turns his daughter into a golden statue. In despair, he seeks to reverse the curse and learns the value of love and relationships over material wealth. The video concludes with reflections on the story's moral and the importance of appreciating non-materialistic joys.
