Horton hears a Who [videorecording] / Blue Sky Studios ; Twentieth Century Fox Animation ; Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation ; produced by Bob Gordon, Bruce Anderson ; story by Dr. Seuss ; screenplay by Ken Daurio, Cinco Paul ; directed by Jimmy Hayward, Steve Martino.
One day, Horton the elephant hears a cry for help coming from a speck of dust. Even though he can't see anyone on the speck, he decides to help it. Good thing since as it turns out, the speck of dust is home to the Whos, who live in their city of Whoville. Horton agrees to help protect the Whos and their home. Unfortunately for Horton, this gives him nothing but torment from his neighbors. They refuse to believe that anything could survive on the speck. Still, Horton stands by the motto that, "After all, a person is a person, no matter how small."
