INKHEART (2009)
SYNOPSIS
Mortimer "Mo" Folchart and his 12-year-old daughter,
Meggie, share an extraordinary gift for bringing
characters from books to life when they read aloud.
But there is a danger: when a character is brought to
life from a book, a real person disappears into its
pages. On one of their trips to a secondhand book
shop, Mo locates a book he's been searching for since
Meggie was three years old, when her mother, Resa,
vanished into its mystical world. But Mo's plan to use
the book to find and rescue Resa is thwarted when
Capricorn, the evil villain of Inkheart, kidnaps Meggie
and, discovering she has inherited her father's gift,
demands that she bring to life his most powerful ally,
the Shadow. Determined to rescue his daughter and
send the fictional characters back where they belong,
Mo assembles a small group of friends and
family--some from the real world, some from the pages
of books--and embarks on a daring and perilous
journey to set things right. --©Warner Bros
