Karlík Bucket, chlapec z chudé rodiny, souhrou šťastných náhod získá los, který mu umožní spolu s dalšími dětskými výherci navštívit továrnu na čokoládu pana Willyho Wonky. Návštěva se pro všechny děti kromě Karlíka promění v hrůzný zážitek, protože Umpa-lumpové, kteří sladkosti vyrábějí, je postupně vytrestají za jejich špatné vlastnosti – jedno spadne do čokoládové řeky, další zfialoví a ještě jiné je svrženo do odpadní šachty.
