Pinocchio
Pinocchio follows a precocious marionette who dreams of being real. A series of adventures with colourful characters like the wise Blue Fairy and mischievous Fox and Cat shape Pinocchio’s experience of the world and teach him valuable lessons about the virtues of honesty, kindness and hard work. Along the way, Pinocchio’s bond with the gentle lumberjack, Geppetto, grows (along with Pinocchio’s nose when he lies!) until he becomes human at last.
