[edit] Plot
Four orphans all from various backgrounds: including one who was raised by a curator at the Louvre, another orphan a refugee from the Mexican "libre" wrestling, the third orphan a recent victim of snakes on her last plane trip, and the fourth a "normal" resident of a mutant "X"-community. On their journey, the orphans visit a chocolate factory, where they find an enchanted wardrobe that transports them to the land of Gnarnia. In Gnarnia, they meet a flamboyant pirate captain, earnest students of wizardry – and join forces with a wise and horny lion to defeat the evil White Bitch of Gnarnia.
