An orphan's perilous journey from London's savage streets to truth, identity, and redemption.
Oliver Twist follows the journey of a small, wide-eyed orphan who dares to ask for more than the harsh charity of a Victorian workhouse and soon finds himself swept into the dangerous streets of London. There he navigates a colourful and morally ambiguous cast — from cunning pickpockets and a beguiling gang leader to unexpected allies — while Charles Dickens pans a sharp, compassionate light over the era's cruelty and hypocrisy. Mixing suspense, dark humour and moments of genuine tenderness, this classic adventure exposes social injustice while remaining a rousing, deeply human story of resilience and belonging.
