The cast and the story

In "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" by Roald Dahl, young Charlie Bucket wins a tour of Willy Wonka's mysterious chocolate factory. Inside, Charlie encounters fantastical inventions and peculiar workers called Oompa-Loompas. A memorable moment involves a room where trained squirrels sort nuts, leading to the misadventure of a spoiled girl named Veruca Salt, who is deemed a "bad nut" and disposed of by the squirrels.
