Aroview: Blending animation and live-action, Luc Besson directs the tale of ‘Arthur and The Minimoys’ (translated to ‘Invisibles’ for English territories), a melange of fantasy ideas/ideals based on Besson’s own foray into storybook writing.

Bringing to life the adventures of a boy transported to a mystical world of tiny people, this has heavy-handed references to King Arthur and Excalibur but will especially charm the tinier people in the family. The star-studded voicework, includes cameos from Madonna, David Bowie and Snoop Dogg.
