Dorothy and her dog Toto are swept by a Kansas tornado to the colourful land of Oz and set out to find their way home. Dorothy is joined by companions along the way seeking courage, heart and wisdom. With an iconic performance by 16-year-old Judy Garland, The Wizard of Oz unfolds as a journey through fear and self-belief combining musical spectacle with emotional clarity.  

The film is celebrated for its use of three-strip Technicolour, fantasy storytelling and iconic musical score. Its imagery, songs and simple structure are foundational to popular cinema and continue to speak across generations. 

‘A film that seems to exist outside time, endlessly rediscovered and reinterpreted. 
’ - Salman Rushdie, The British Film Institute
