Charlie Bucket lives with his mother, father and four
grandparents in a decrepit wood house that only has two rooms and a single bed.
The Buckets hardly have anything to eat and they endure the cold during winter,
but when it’s Charlie’s birthday, they always do whatever it takes to give him
the thing he likes most: a Wonka chocolate bar. Charlie is a polite and kind
boy, who respects and takes care of his parents and grandparents.
This year is more special because Mr. Wonka, master of the
famous and fascinating Wonka Chocolate Factory – that no one knew anything
about for several years and whose factory nobody enters and nobody leaves – has
decided to open the factory gates for five children. The winners are those who
find a Golden Ticket in a Wonka chocolate bar.
From this moment on, all the world revolves around finding
the Golden Tickets. After a few days, the first winners start to show up: a
very greedy boy called Augustus Gloop; a spoiled girl whose father had bought
thousands of chocolate bars in order to find a Golden Ticket that his daughter,
Veruca Salt, wanted so much; Violet Beauregarde, a girl who spends all day
chewing gum; and Mike Teavee, a boy who only likes watching television.
Charlie wants to find a Golden Ticket more than anything in
the world, but he has only got one chance, when he receives the chocolate bar
for his birthday. But he doesn’t find the ticket on this occasion. Destiny
makes that Charlie get other opportunities, and only in the fourth bar does he
find the much-desired Golden Ticket.
Here begins the true adventure, as they meet Willy Wonka and
the Oompa-Loompas, and they can see the marvelous, strange and surprising
Chocolate Factory, the most famous in the world. The five children discover
many things inside the factory, and each one gets a surprise that he didn’t
expect.
