“Adaptation of the fairy tale of the same name. Princess Aurora is cursed by the evil witch Maleficent – who declares that before Aurora reaches her 16th birthday she will die by a poisoned spinning-wheel. To try to prevent this, the king places her into hiding, in the care of three goodnatured – but not too bright – fairies. Written by Tim Pickett <quetzal@yoyo.cc.monash.edu.au>”
