Lion of Oz

In the bustling shadows of an Omaha circus, Lion lives a solitary existence, famed for his raw power yet misunderstood by the very crowd that watches him. His only true companion is the eccentric balloonist Oscar Diggs, a man whose wild imagination and daring inventions make him a perfect foil to the lion’s quiet strength. When a sudden storm lifts them high above the grounds, a balloon ride turns into an unexpected passage to a land where reality shimmers with magic, and the Lion is handed a Badge of Courage—a symbolic token that hints at the bravery he will soon be called upon to prove.

Beyond the clouds lies the fantastical realm of Oz, a place where vivid colors pulse with enchantment and every horizon promises both wonder and danger. Here, the harmony of the land hinges on a legendary Flower of Oz, a source of power coveted by those who would reshape the world to their will. The ever‑present threat of the Wicked Witch of the East looms, her ambitions casting a shadow over the bright vistas. As the lion steps onto this unfamiliar terrain, he finds himself thrust into the role of an unlikely leader, tasked with rallying a disparate fellowship and steering a quest that could determine the fate of Oz itself.

The film balances whimsical adventure with a heartfelt exploration of inner courage. Lion must reconcile his fearsome reputation with the gentle heroism required to protect a world far beyond his circus ring, while Oscar Diggs offers the mischievous wit and wizardly flair that keep hope alive amid uncertainty. Together, they navigate a landscape that is both dazzling and perilous, hinting at alliances yet to be forged and challenges that will test the very essence of bravery—all without revealing the outcomes that await on their journey.
