Mary And The Witch's Flower
One day, while spending the summer with her great aunt, Mary follows an odd
cat into the nearby woods. There she stumbles upon flowers which hold a strange,
luminescent power that brings a broomstick to life — which then, in a
heartbeat, whisks her above the clouds and off to a strange and secret place. It
is here she finds Endor College – a school of magic!
Even though the penalties for imposters are harsh, Mary enters the Endor
College campus. And despite a complete lack of magical knowledge, she
demonstrates surprising promising abilities. However, she quickly discovers that
all is not as it seems at the school – there have been strange experiments
taking place behind closed doors, and all too soon, she comes face to face with
great danger – and a life-changing choice.
From the creators of Arrietty and When Marnie Was There, and featuring the
voices of Ruby Barnhill (The BFG), Kate Winslet (Titanic) and Jim Broadbent
(Paddington), Mary and The Witch's Flower is a stunningly animated fantasy
adventure, filled with magic, fun and emotion.

Critic Reviews:
- " Gorgeously detailed pastel interiors, watercolour landscapes and
imaginative grotesquery make for suitably magical spectacle. As transporting as
any witch's broomstick. " – Tara Brady
- " It may lack the originality of the best Miyazaki films, but with its
heart-swelling score and exquisitely realised worlds, this is a must for Ghibli
fans. " – Wendy Ide
- " This art-form has long been thought to have reached its twilight
years, but Yonebayashi's film brims over with the bounce and spark of
childhood. " – Robbie Collin
