Created using Japanese animation, The Secret World of Arrietty tells the tender story of a sick teenager and the 4-inch tall girl who inspired him to survive. It doesn’t matter whether you see this film in theatres or not; it would be wonderful either way. But if you like animated movies, we urge you to see it.
