The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005)
The beloved masterpiece comes to life.
Siblings Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter step through a magical wardrobe and find the land of Narnia. There, they discover a charming, once peaceful kingdom that has been plunged into eternal winter by the evil White Witch, Jadis. Aided by the wise and magnificent lion, Aslan, the children lead Narnia into a spectacular, climactic battle to be free of the Witch's glacial powers forever.
In The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, consciousness is carried by animals — a plane of “Narnian fantasy kingdom”. The story fights on E8/E9/E10 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing faith, power, war, monarchy.
