La sua vita cambia quando Willy Wonka, proprietario di una famosissima fabbrica di cioccolato, mette in palio cinque biglietti, nascosti in cinque barrette di cioccolato. I bambini che troveranno uno di questi biglietti potranno fare un tour nella fantastica fabbrica di cioccolato. Charlie trova miracolosamente un biglietto vincente...
