THE BORROWERS (2011)

James Hellman, a young boy who lives with his grandmother, Mrs. Driver discovers that the tiny Clock family, father Pod, mother Homily and daughter Arrietty lives in his house. His grandmother also discovers their existence. This forces the Pod family to flee on December 9, 2011 [15:56 - 26:19]. The Clocks reach a subterranean borrower city where Arrietty meets the reckless youth Spiller. Mrs. Driver contacts eccentric professor Professor Mildeye, who in spite of the disdain of his colleagues, believes in the existence of “little people”.  When the Clocks return temporarily to their home Pod and Homily are captured by Mildeye. With the help of James, Spiller and Arrietty rescue them. The little people return a gold coin they found to Mrs. Driver, who uses the money to save her house from foreclosure. Arrietty and Spiller leave to explore the world.
