Plot Summary: Mo Folchart (Fraiser) drags his daughter Meggie (Bennet) all around the world. At the last home, an old enigmatic acquaintence of Mo's shows up named Dustfinger (Bettany). The next morning Mo packs up and leaves with Meggie without telling her what is going on. They travel to Meggie's great aunt Eleanor's (Mirren) house to stay at. One night a bunch of thugs arrive at the house and kidnap Mo, taking him to see Capricorn (Serkis), a cruel and evil dictator. Meggie soon finds out that Mo has the ability to read characters out of books. The only drawback is that when he brings something out of a story, something must go back in to replace it. This is how Maggie lost her mother Theresa (Guillory). Capricorn and Dustfinger are characters from a book called Inkheart. Determined to get Mo back, Meggie sets out with Eleanor to Capricorn's village. However, soon after arriving there, both women are also abducted and locked up with Mo. Dustfinger comes to the rescue and smuggles them out with a boy who also came out of a book named Farid (Gavron). Now the group of them must find a way to get another copy of Inkheart to send Capricorn and his thieves back into it's pages.
