Trouble in Toy Town
In Playmobil: The Movie, Marla and her brother Charlie are sucked into an animated Playmobil universe. In this realm, the siblings have turned into Playmobil toys. Charlie, now a Viking warrior toy, has been separated from his sister.
Marla is determined to find him. Other toys, including a secret agent and a food truck driver, join her quest. Together, these characters journey across the world of Playmobil in search of Charlie.
Lino DiSalvo directed the movie. He told TIME for Kids he was inspired by his family. “Many moments in Playmobil: The Movie are based on how I play with my kids,” DiSalvo says. His son uses toys to act out favorite movie scenes. And his daughter casts magic spells on her toys. “Both of these played a big part in the film.” Playmobil: The Movie hits theaters December 6.
