Adapted from Mary Stewart’s beloved children’s classic The Little Broomstick, Mary and the Witch’s Flower combines an action-packed girl-power adventure with a magical fantasy tale.
The spirited, red-haired Mary, spending the last weeks of summer in the English countryside with her great aunt Charlotte, follows a mysterious black cat, Tib, into the woods and stumbles upon a magical flower that transforms a little broomstick into one that flies. She is then whisked away high above the clouds and transported to Endor College, a school ofwitchcraft and wizardry.
There she is welcomed by headmistress Madame Mumblechook (Kate Winslet, Finding Neverland) and the eccentric Doctor Dee (Jim Broadbent, Paddington 2). Believing her to be a once-in-a-lifetime magical prodigy they give Mary a guided tour of the school and invite her to join. But Mary discovers all is not as it seems and finds herself confronting great danger – and has to call on all her courage if she is to save the day.
Mary and the Witch’s Flower is available on digital, Blu-ray, DVD and special edition Blu-ray steelbook on September 10.
