NEED HELP NAMING THIS MOVIE

Post by gmojason »

It's an indie movie about a girl who moves with her family (who she doesn't get along with) to a new town. The new house is 70s/80s style and their back yard leads directly to a forest in which appears these friendly little creatures, similar in style to the Where the Wild Things Are ones but smaller. This girl has a box that brings her comfort when she opens it and is important to the movie but i forget exactly why, I think she calls it her dream box. Her first day of school she befriends a nerdy boy outside I think during P.E. who becomes her go-to pal and i think she meets some mean girls then too. She eventually throws a party and I remember her entering the forest with surreal stuff happening (she falls asleep in this little hut or something and a witch of some sort appears, idk). She finds her way back home and fights the mean girls in her room while they dance or something... I kind of remember the color palette being similar to Moonrise Kingdom's and the whole style being a little Wes Anderson-esque. I saw it on a plane in 2016 so I'm guessing it's release date was between 2013 and 2016. Somebody please help me it was really good!
