The Witches

2020

The Witches (2020) is based on the 1983 novel of the same name by Roald Dahl and stars Anne Hathaway, Octavia Spencer and Stanley Tucci.

In 1968, Charlie Hansen is orphaned when his parents are killed in a car accident. He goes to live with his grandmother (Octavia Spencer) and has an encounter with witches.

After he's been turned into a mouse, Charlie and his 2 friends - children who've also been turned into mice - enact revenge on the coven of witches meeting in a hotel under the pretext of protecting children.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
