Here is the synopsis for “The Secret World of Arrietty”:

Residing quietly beneath the floorboards are little people who live undetected in a secret world to be discovered. Arrietty (voice of Bridgit Mendler) – a tiny but tenacious 14-year-old girl – lives with her parents (voices of Will Arnett and Amy Poehler) in the recesses of a suburban garden home unbeknownst to the homeowner and her housekeeper (voice of Carol Burnett).

Like all little people, Arrietty (pronounced AIR-ee-ett-ee) remains hidden from view except during occasional covert ventures beyond the floorboards to “borrow” scrap supplies like sugar cubes from her human hosts. But when 12-year-old Shawn (voice of David Henrie) – a human boy who comes to stay in the home – discovers his mysterious housemate one evening, a secret friendship blossoms. If discovered, their relationship could drive Arrietty’s family from the home and straight into danger.

From the legendary Studio Ghibli (“Spirited Away,” “Ponyo”) comes “The Secret World of Arrietty”: an animated adventure based on Mary Norton’s acclaimed children’s book series “The Borrowers”.

The film was directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi and produced by Toshio Suzuki. Gary Rydstrom directed the English-language version from a screenplay written by Karey Kirkpatrick. The producers include Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall. The original Japanese screenplay was written by Hayao Miyazaki and Keiko Niwa.
