Lucy Rose, a modern, preteen London girl, comes with her mother Julie to the Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital. Lucy has a heart condition that will prove fatal if not treated soon, and only an operation can fix the problem. Mr. Wylie (Actor/StanleyTucci), the surgeon in charge of the operation, assures Lucy and Julie he'll do everything he can to make sure it goes smoothly, but Julie is deeply worried something might go wrong and Lucy might not make it. Before the operation Jerzy, one of the hospitals's orderlies, tells Lucy all about the hospital's history with J.M. Barrie and Peter Pan and gives her a copy of the book to read. The rest of the movie switches back and forth between Lucy's operation at the hospital and her imagining of the story of Peter Pan, which casts the people around her as the story's characters.
