About
One of the most beautiful fairy tales ever made once again returns to the big screen. This time the quality, scale and novel approach is attributable to the producer of such shows as Harry Potter, Paddington Bear and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. When the ten-year-old orphan Mary arrives at a mysterious property in Yorkshire to live with her reclusive uncle and his very straight-laced housewife, she is not yet aware that it will mark the beginning of the most extraordinary adventure in her life. Despite strict prohibitions, Mary sets out to discover hidden nooks of the property until finally she comes across a fantastic, huge garden. This is where she and her local friends Dickon and Colin, and a stray, lovely dog will discover the power of imagination, friendship and courage. The Secret Garden will be screened for the first time in Poland during the Transatlantyk Festival.
