Take a guided tour 'down the rabbit hole'

Alice: Curiouser and Curiouser offers an immersive and visually rich exploration of one of literature's most enduring cultural phenomena, taking viewers behind the scenes of the landmark exhibition at London's Victoria and Albert Museum. Guided by curator Kate Bailey and presenter Andi Oliver, the film provides exclusive access to the exhibition, transforming it into a cinematic journey through the imaginative world of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Tracing nearly 160 years of influence, the documentary examines how Alice has evolved from a Victorian manuscript into a global icon, continually reinterpreted across generations and artistic disciplines. From early illustrations and theatrical adaptations to groundbreaking reinterpretations in film, fashion, photography, and contemporary art, the film highlights the story's remarkable adaptability and enduring appeal. Featuring works and inspirations connected to figures such as Salvador Dalí, Yayoi Kusama, Tim Burton, Vivienne Westwood, and Little Simz, it demonstrates how Alice's surreal logic and playful subversion continue to inspire boundary-pushing creativity

Produced in collaboration with the V&A, this documentary stands as both an educational and visually engaging experience, blending curatorial insight with dynamic presentation. It contextualizes Alice within broader cultural and historical frameworks, exploring themes of identity, transformation, and imagination while showcasing rare archival materials and striking exhibition design

Both informative and accessible, Alice: Curiouser and Curiouser serves as a definitive guided tour of a major international exhibition, offering audiences a deeper understanding of how a single literary work has transcended its origins to become a lasting and ever-evolving artistic touchstone.
