When the imaginary friends of a young girl living in Australia's Lightning Ridge opal-mining town go missing, the inexplicable illness that befalls her soon prompts her brother to organize a desperate search for his sister's transparent pals in director Peter Cattaneo's adaptation of Ben Rice's popular children's novella.

    This movie was a movie that I'd see again.My kids(3girls 18,13,6) said it sounded dull but after watching it they changed their minds.

    My wife and I, who are in our sixties, watched this movie. It was based on a very unusal plot of imaginary friends of a young girl. But it is also a very interesting plot to hold the attention of adults and those of all ages. The mining for opal in a small Australian town was something that I never knew was done. So it was very educational. JK

    I watched with my 10 yr old grand-daughter. I planned on taking a nap while she was watching, but it held my interest and I couldn't stop watching. We both enjoyed it very much.
