Synopsis

Tiny  14-year-old  Arrietty  lives  under  the floorboards of an old house
with her father and mother. Their peaceful life is dramatically  changed
when  the  ever  curious Arrietty accidentally allows herself to be seen
by Sho, a poorly and lonesome 12-year-old human boy.  The  fledgling
friendship   between   the   two   lonely   children   causes   Haru   the
housekeeper to become aware of the borrowers' existence. The family
of little borrowers are forced to choose between staying  in  their  well-
established home or leaving for the uncertainty of the great outdoors.
