Synopsis

This live-action prequel to Disney’s 101 Dalmatians follows the peculiar beginnings of the iconic villain Cruella de Vil. Formerly known as Estella, the young fashionista grew up orphaned and in poverty, with her dreams of becoming a renowned designer giving her a sense of hope. Now at the start of her career, Cruella roams 70s London with two new friends, thieves Jasper and Horace, in the hope of catching her big break. When she is taken under the wing of fashion socialite Baroness von Hellman, who is impressed by her unique style, Cruella’s life is turned upside down setting her on a slippery path of vengeance. This fun origin story looks at one of cinema’s most significant villains and asks questions surrounding morality and finding oneself.

What our educators say

"Some of them saw a clip from Wakolda (The German Doctor) on TV recently and really wanted to watch it. So I thought I’d take a chance, not expecting them to watch the whole film but the majority were absolutely gripped. "
