The Midas Touch (2022)

The Midas Touch is a 2022 French-Irish animated film based on the King Midas story.

Plot
King Midas (played by Mike) was a greedy king who loves nothing more that gold so one day, while taking a walk, he met an elf (played by Tara) and wished that anything he touches turns to gold. The elf tries to tell him that it is a bad idea but Midas wouldn't listen so she granted him his wish and Midas spended all of his time turning everything he touches into gold.

It was time to eat and Midas was about to eat his food but since he can turn anything to gold, every food he touched turned into gold and this continued until he was starving.

The Elf appeared to him and explained that selfishness and greed won't lead to happiness and Midas apologized to her for not listening to her and asked her to remove this ability, which she did, and Midas, having learned about greed, was so happy that he allowed the elf to visit him anytime.
