The Oddsockeaters (2016)
Oddsockeaters are small invisible creatures who take our socks, but can only take one sock from a pair – the odd ones. They live on socks! The fate of the Oddsockeaters and their greatest foe – a strange and abandoned professor – are brought together by the little Oddsockeater Hihlik, who faces great adventures in the film. When his grandfather Lamor's days are over, Hihlik must overcome his fear, climb out the window and go looking for his uncle of Padre, who he hadn't even known existed. He draws courage from the things his grandfather instilled in him – love of family, good behavior, and the Oddsockeater "commandments"...
