description: England, beginning of the XX Century. After losing her parents during a Cholera Epidemic in India, Mary Lennox, a very unhealthy child, with a lousy temper, travels towards Yorkshire county to live under the protection of his uncle Craven, who is a very unsociable men. Misselwhite, her new home, is a huge mansion located in the wilderness, with walls that smell of sadness and above all, keep more than one mystery. Ignoring the warnings from Mrs. Medlock, the housekeeper and loyal protector of her uncle Craven, and from Martha, her governess, Mary penetrates into a hidden garden of the mansion that had remained locked for the last ten year. She crosses a barrier that separates her from an enigmatic, forbidden world, and discovers the beauty of a universe ruled by easiness and generosity.
