The story

In 1933, during the Great Depression, 11-year-old Annie Bennett has been on her own at the NYC Municipal Orphanage Girls Annex ever since she was an infant. The only two things she has from her biological family are half a heart-shaped locket with a key hole and a note from her parents, which promises they would come back for her. The orphanage is run by the tyrannical Miss Agatha "Aggie" Hannigan, who starves the orphans and forces them to do child labor in order to help them gain work experience until she ultimately releases them by giving them various jobs in New York City once they reach adulthood.
