Co-presented by the UCLA Film & Television Archive Recommended for ages 5+ Studio Ghibli’s enchanting adaptation of Mary Norton’s classic children’s novel *The Borrowers* follows Arrietty, a tiny “Borrower,” who lives in secret with her family under the floorboards of a rustic human cottage. When she’s discovered by Shawn, an ailing young boy who’s come to spend the summer with his great-aunt, her whole world feels threatened. Showcasing Ghibli’s signature lush and cozy animation, *The Secret World of Arrietty* (2019) is a gentle, awe-inspiring story about bravery, trust and a beautiful friendship that bridges two very different worlds. (2010, Dir. Hiromasa Yonebayashi, DCP, color, 94 min.)
