Still from Mary and the Witch's Flower

Studio Ponoc adapts the classic children's book The Little Broomstick in this magical tale about a young witch learning how to wield her powers.

Sent to live with her strict great-aunt, Mary’s discovery in the woods of a flying broomstick takes her to Madame Bumblechook’s magic school, where she become a brilliant witch. But when she learns that the source of her powers comes from the sinister Doctor Dee’s special technologies, she realises she needs to use all her powers, magic and otherwise, to save a friend in danger.

This charming animation from Hiromasa ‘Maro’ Yonebayashi, adapted from Mary Stewart’s children’s book The Little Broomstick, is a gentle and timely film about using power responsibly and taking care of the planet – and each other.

Come along at 10am for a free artist led workshop themed around this morning’s film.
