"Loosely adapted from the acclaimed 1943 science fiction short story, Mimsy Were the Borogoves, by Lewis Padgett (the pseudonym of husband and wife team Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore), The Last Mimzy centers on two children, Noah (Chris O'Neil) and Emma (Rhiannon Leigh Wryn) Wilder. Their lives are changed when they encounter a mysterious box containing strange devices, presumed to be toys.
Presented as a flashback, The Last Mimzy is the story of a distant future's attempt to prevent, through time travel, a catastrophic ecological disaster that has destroyed their world. High tech devices, masquerading as toys, are sent back in time into the hands of Noah and Emma. The children and their parents, Jo (Joely Richardson) and David (Timothy Hutton), live in early 21st century Seattle. The "toys" are mostly incomprehensible to Emma and Noah, except for what appears to be a stuffed rabbit. Sensing the strangeness of the devices, the children initially keep their discovery a secret from their parents.
Interaction with the devices causes the children to develop increased intelligence and psychic capabilities, including teleportation, the ability to communicate with spiders, telepathy, telekinesis, and levitation. Emma becomes emotionally attached to the rabbit (Mimzy), from whom she learns how to further operate the devices. The children's unusual abilities and Emma's obsessive attachment to Mimzy soon alert their parents to the devices. Also, a power black-out of the entire Pacific northwest caused by the toys alerts the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to their activities as well. The family is held for questioning, and it is revealed that Mimzy is actually an advanced form of artificial life utilizing nanotechnology. Mimzy has brought a message from humanity's future, where pollution has nearly destroyed the world. Many rabbits like Mimzy were sent to the past, and Mimzy is the only one remaining. Mimzy explains that they must use the toys to return it to the future with uncorrupted 21st century DNA, which can be used to stop pollutants from causing the ecological disaster.
Despite attempts by an unbelieving FBI to hinder them, Noah and Emma use their psychic powers to escape with Mimzy and are able to initiate the time transport so Mimzy can return to the future. Fortunately, Mimzy carries with it a tear from Emma, thus providing the pure DNA required to prevent the disaster. In the new future Emma is revered as the "mother" of all the present generations, and the children in the future exhibit the same psychic gifts that Emma had developed."Part 1 2 3 4 5
