The Flying Machine is a spectacular adventure in 3-D which pushes the boundaries of family animation. Aurally and visually spellbinding, the story starts in London when single mum, Georgie (voiced by Heather Graham) takes her children Jane and Fred, to see The Flying Machine, a film being accompanied live by super-star pianist, Lang Lang. The film, which we get to watch as well, is called Magic Piano.
A magical event occurs which transports Georgie’s kids into the animation world and our hero, with a little help from Lang Lang, embarks on a pursuit to find Jane and Fred. Combining 3-D, stop-motion animation and live action, The Flying Machine is an enchanting and vibrant animated extravaganza, brimming with imagination, music and drama. An action-packed, life-affirming fairy tale, which is not to be missed.
