The Borrowers

The Borrowers is a thrilling, fun-filled adventure through the exciting world of the little people who live under our floorboards. It follows the adventures of Arrietty Clock, a head-strong teenage Borrower whose parents, Pod and Homily, are terrified of the world of the 'Human Beans' who live above them. Desperate for freedom and adventure, Arrietty sneaks upstairs one night and befriends James, a lonely boy who lives with his father and grandmother. But Arrietty's voyage of discovery inadvertently reveals her family's existence to the scheming scientist Professor Mildeye, forcing them to go on the run into the big bad world. Enlisting the help of Spiller, a leather-jacketed tearaway with a roguish glint in his eye, Arrietty embarks on a daring mission to outsmart Mildeye and return the Clock family to their home in time for Christmas.
