Forced to live in the real world after being expelled from Barbieland, Barbie (Margot Robbie) must struggle with the difficulties of not being just a doll anymore – at least she is accompanied by her faithful and beloved Ken (Ryan Gosling), who seems increasingly more fascinated by life in the new world. Meanwhile, Barbie struggles to adjust, and has to face many colorful moments until she discovers that true beauty lies within everyone.
