Teenager Dorothée Gale lives on a farm in Kansas with her aunt and uncle Henry and her dog Toto. But she feels misunderstood and dreams of escaping "Over the Rainbow". A tornado hits her house and Dorothy lands in Oz, crushing the house of the Wicked Witch of the East.
Glinda, the good witch of the North, presents Dorothy with the magic ruby slippers belonging to the wicked witch, who is believed to be dead. Dorothée follows the yellow brick path that leads to the magician of the Emerald City. On her way, she meets a scarecrow, a tin lumberjack and a fearful lion.
Together, they will face many dangers, including the wicked witch of the West, who will stop at nothing to get hold of Dorothy's magic ruby slippers. But will they manage to join the magician and find their way back to their house?
