The focus of the story is practically a teenage boy of 12 years old. His name is Conor played by a young actor named Lewis MacDougall. The story starts unfolding when he is challenged with the death disease of his mother performed by Felicity Jones. Moreover, troubles at home are joined by him being bullied at school. Thus, it is hard to find a person who will be envious of the life of this unfortunate boy. But here it is and he has only one way to follow that lies specifically in escaping from reality into a fantastical world as he is unable to struggle against this cruel world on his own so far. There he will be able to investigate the monsters and fairy tales that explore courage, loss, and faith.
As you see, the story is much overloaded with hints at the modern situation in the world. It is thus thought-provoking and keenly recommended to viewing it by teenagers, as well as adults who have children.
The story is, by the way, predicated on the eponymous award-winning children’s fantasy novel. Thus, the background is rather fixed and reliable.
