80s kids movie, fantacy,with a dwarf, live actors

ok, this is very scetchy to me. i used to rent this movie a lot as a kid. it could be late 70s or 80s. i remember a young boy and girl (maybe 9-12yr) i think brother and sister. i think the movie starts in there house, and this dwarf of some kind/small fantasy creature/little man appears. i think the kids try to hide him, or he hides himself in the washer or dryer, maybe it was the garage......im so confused. the kids live in a modern society, and he takes the kids to his land. where he is from i remember a lot of fantasy, almost like a huge festival. i dont even remember the plot, how it ends, nothing, thats all i have. i adored that movie as a child, can anyone help me remember the title.

Blue Angel agrees: I agree, it sounds like the Great Land of Small. This movie is out of print, but you might be able to find a copy of it on ebay, amazon, etc.

The movie you are looking for is definitely the Great Land of Small. I had the same memories with the acrobats and the butterflies and finally found out the name about a year ago. I was able to find a vhs copy of it on ebay so you might want to look there if you're having trouble finding it. The movie is out of print so you won't find it on dvd anywhere unless it's a bootleg.
