Small Foot 2018 Based on the unpublished novel Yeti tracks by Sergio Pablos, story by John Requa, Glenn Ficarra and Karey Kirkpatrick, screenplay by Karey Kirkpatrick and Clare Sera, directed by Karey Kirkpatrick and Jason Reisig.
A village of Yeti's lives up the top of a cloud surrounded mountain in the Himalayas. They live by a series of rules, they are written on little stones that are kept and enforced by the Stonekeeper. The stones say the humans or smallfoots are mythical and it's dangerous to go below the cloud cover.
Migo is the central figure in the poster, he's the son of the gong ringer, and he's seen a human. Sadly the pilot of a crashed plane disappeared over the edge of the mountain. Don't worry, his parachute opened and he floated down into the clouds. When Migo tells the village he's banished into the wilderness.
The human Migo is holding is Percy Patterson, he's a wildlife documentary filmmaker with a TV show. Percy's been losing viewers and he needs a bit of a boost in his ratings. He's come to the Himalayas to find the Yeti that the pilot has claimed he's seen. Percy and his crew are in Kathmandu at the base of the mountain that Yetis lives on.
Migo has been contacted in his banishment by the Smallfoot Evidentiary Society, a small group of young people who believe in the smallfoots. They are lead by the Stonekeeper's daughter. Some of them descend through the clouds and wind up in the village. Migo and Percy meet, Percy captures a bit of video of Migo and uploads it to the internet. After lots of chaos in the village the action moves up the mountain to the Yeti village. Their beliefs are challenged by the situation.
The rest of the movie brings the humans and yetis together in a peaceful way. It's a fun show with a fair number of OK jokes and some silly slapstick. The only thing that I didn't care for the was the character design. Someone was nice enough to pass along a DVD of the movie so I wouldn't need to buy one. I'd watch it again sometime.
