This animated adaptation of the classic Roald Dahl story tells of a lonely young girl and her unlikely friendship with the Big Friendly Giant (the BFG). Early one morning at the orphanage where she lives, Sophie catches a glimpse of the BFG doing something odd with a large trumpet over the children's beds – soon, she discovers his mission is to harvest the childrens’ dreams. Together, the pair embark on a quest to quash the mean-spirited giants responsible for nightmares, enlisting the help of the army along the way - and even Her Majesty The Queen.
