Wiplala sélectionné au TIFF de Toronto
Lonely young Johannes makes an unusual friend when he opens the kitchen cupboard one night: a magical little man named Wiplala, whose powers soon plunge Johannes’ entire family into a bizarre adventure.
Life at home is a struggle for nine-year-old Johannes: his mother has recently passed away, his father is preoccupied, and his older sister has no time for him. Then one night Johannes discovers Wiplala, a little man with magical powers who lives in the kitchen cupboard. Johannes is thrilled to have a friend all his own — until one of Wipala’s spells accidentally shrinks him and his family down to four inches in height! Wracked by self-doubt, the well-intentioned Wiplala must figure out a way to return everyone to normal, but first he must learn that there is no greater power than belief in oneself. Based on a popular Dutch children’s book, this action-packed adventure will delight the whole family.
