Thumbelina

In a quiet countryside dotted with wind‑swept fields and the soft hum of hidden magic, an elderly widow named Hobbs longs for the companionship of a child. Her wishes are answered on a birthday that feels ordinary until the enigmatic Marvelous Magician appears with a tiny, wondrous gift: a minuscule girl no larger than a thumb. This delicate newcomer, christened Thumbelina, brings a splash of wonder to Hobbs’s modest home, turning the simple rhythms of daily life into something luminous and extraordinary.

The cottage is also home to Percival, a loyal pig whose steady presence has always been a source of comfort for Hobbs. As Thumbelina’s world expands, Percival’s quiet devotion begins to stir with a surprising mix of protectiveness and envy. The gentle creature finds himself grappling with feelings he has never known, leading him to entertain a bold, if misguided, notion—enlisting a nearby bullfrog to whisk the tiny heroine away. This quiet tension hints at an adventure that will carry Thumbelina far beyond the familiar garden gates.

The film’s tone balances tender whimsy with a light‑hearted sense of mischief, inviting viewers into a realm where everyday objects seem to hold secret lives and the line between friend and foe blurs with a chuckle. With a palette of soft pastels, fluttering insects, and the occasional burst of magical sparkle, the story promises a journey that celebrates the longing for belonging, the quirks of unexpected friendships, and the brave curiosity of a girl who is, quite literally, a breath of fresh air in a world that suddenly feels much larger.
