Oz: The Great and Powerful

Fantasy prequel. A brash showman is abruptly transported to Oz, where witch Theodora believes him to be the great wizard prophecy says will save the land.

Colourful prequel to the legendary tales of the magical realm. Kansas, 1905. A brash showman who performs tricks rather than real magic is abruptly transported to fantastical Oz, where witch Theodora believes him to be the great wizard prophecy says will save the land. Her sister Evanora is less convinced, but 'Oz' discovers the power of belief can be as good as mystical ability - though Theodora feels betrayed by the truth.
