Everyone knows you can have any and all in your wardrobe. Beneath prickly wool coat sleeves that sometimes move like arms, among scarves carrying mom’s scent, and next to a forgotten beach bag that happily strews sand around. The magic wardrobe knows how to keep secrets, bring joy, frighten a bit, and lip into adventures together. The five episodes of The Magic Wardrobe takes us to the world where, for the youngest viewers, everything sparks curiosity and is worthwhile.

Within one screening of this movie, you also will be able to watch the animanion The Nap by Nils Skapāns.
