Alice in Wonderland

A closer look at the story

Now a young woman, Alice Kingsleigh feels completely out of place at a glittering society party. When she follows a white rabbit, she steps back into the strange and magical land she visited when she was little. Reunited with old friends in Wonderland, Alice discovers that the land has fallen under the oppressive rule of the cruel Red Queen. To save it, she must fulfil a prophecy and, in the process, uncover her own true destiny. Directed by Tim Burton, with Linda Woolverton adapting Lewis Carroll's work, the 108-minute 2010 film stars Mia Wasikowska, Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter in a colourful fantasy adventure.
