Synopsis
Since Dorothy Gale started her epic journey down the Yellow Brick Road 125 years ago in L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, she's become a celebrity, a brand, and a beacon for marginalized voices across our culture. IT'S DOROTHY! brings her timeless adventures in Oz to life through the human experiences of a new generation of star performers, infused with the spirit and influence of Judy Garland and more. With a chorus of cultural icons, unforgettable music, and a magical remix of archival and cinematic art, this film centers the perspectives of women, people of color, and LGBTQ+ voices. Exploring the meaning and evolution of a cherished character through the eras, we celebrate Dorothy as an enduring symbol of hope and a touchstone in our universal quest to fly over the rainbow and find home again.
