Synopsis

A troubled 14-year-old boy. A duplicitous witch. A fabled tower. A magical Paris. Welcome to the world of "The Strange," Ron Base's exciting new fantasy-adventure called "hypnotic" by critic George Anthony. Hollywood Reporter critic Ray Bennett says "The Strange" is "highly entertaining," while National Post critic Gina Mallet pronounces it "a delight." Orphaned and penniless, young Ned Arnheim is taken in by a beautiful, enigmatic confidence woman out to sell the Eiffel Tower. Ned somehow must stop her and that sets off a series of adventures filled with magic and mystery, chases through rat-infested sewers, attacks by winged creatures out of a boy's worst nightmares, all set against the glamorous, dangerous backdrop that is the world's most enchanting city at the turn of the century.
