In order to comprehend herself and learn her actual purpose, she must journey to the human world. Ken, played by Ryan Gosling, her kinda-sorta lover, joins along for the voyage.
Directed by Greta Gerwig and written along with Noah Baumbach, ‘Barbie’ became a cultural phenomenon upon release and one of the biggest box-office successes of the year.
