The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are evacuated from London to Professor Kirke's mansion to avoid the Blitz. During a game of hide and seek Lucy finds a wardrobe which gives her entry to the magical land of Narnia, where animals can talk. But a white witch has laid a spell over the entire land making it winter but never Christmas. Two sons of Adam and two daughters of Eve are needed to break the spell and bring spring back to the land. But when the four siblings manage to get into Narnia together things do not go to plan, and a betrayal by one requires the sacrifice of the great lion Aslan if the children are to succeed in their quest.
