Trailer

Plot summary

A wind-up toy shaped as a mouse and his child is unpacked in a toy shop, where a key in the father's back sets the pair moving. There they meet a toy elephant and a toy seal, and the child proposes that the four of them stay together as a family; the other toys laugh at the idea. A fall from the counter drops the mice into the trash, and from there they are carried to the dump. Manny the rat rules that place, running a casino staffed by broken wind-up toys he keeps in slavery. Among the animals the mice meet is a psychic frog, and the pair hold to their wish to wind themselves and live free.
