One day, Charles Wallace introduces Meg to three strange beings from across the cosmos: Mrs. Who, Mrs. Which and Mrs. Whatsit. The shapeshifters know much about the universe, including the whereabouts of the kids’ father, propelling Meg, Calvin and Charles Wallace on an incredible adventure across time and space to rescue him.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
