In the movie, Barbie returns as Merliah, the fun and fashionable surfing champion who is also a magical mermaid princess. The story unfolds as Merliah heads to Australia for a surfing competition where she must stop the evil mermaid Eris from taking over the throne of Oceana ... in other words, a fun movie for Barbie fans.
