This classic tale by Charles Dickens (which served as the basis for the hit musical +Oliver) receives a new animated interpretation in this version designed for family viewing. In Oliver Twist, a young orphan left to fend for himself in the brutal workhouses of London escapes, only to throw in his lot with a gang of boy thieves led by the devious Fagin, where young Oliver is befriended by the mischievous Artful Dodger.
