Based on the much loved story by Frances Hodgson Burnett, A Little Princess follows the story of Sara Crewe, who is left in boarding school by her widowed father. When her father dies, the cruel headmistress makes Sara the school slave and banishes her to sleep in the freezing attic. When she has even up hope kindness emerges, a neighbour, Ram Dass, brings her gifts of food and warmth. With forgiveness and a sprinkle of Christmas magic Sara's hardships transform into joy, when she learns that she is not penniless after all!
