Screening held one month before February 17 opening in North America
The New York International Children's Film Festival announced on Thursday that it will hold a special preview screening of Studio Ghibli's Arrietty anime, will receive a theatrical run in North America starting on February 17.
The film re-imagines Mary Norton's 1952 novel The Borrowers by moving the story to a Tokyo suburb. The story revolves around Arrietty, a member of the "little people" who live under the floorboards of a regular human family's home, and their struggle to remain hidden from the human "beans."
The movie originally ran in theaters there in August.
