Synopsis

After her parents die in India, young Mary Lennox is brought back to England and taken to live in the strange gloomy house owned by her uncle. However, her uncle is almost never there - and having worked out how to get out of her locked room, Mary explores the house and its grounds, and starts to find out the many hidden places and stories lurking there. The Secret Garden was originally one of the great books for children - and this film version is every bit as good.
