The Boathouse is a 2010 children's film directed by Eric Hendershot and starring Anna Harris and Mason Johnson.

Plot

The films begins with a little girl named Anna who lives with her stepmother. Her mother died when she was young and the father, David, marries another woman, Shannon. The father dies, leaving Anna in the custody of Anna's grandmother, Mrs. McKenzie, but she forgot where she hid the video of David saying he left Anna in Mrs. McKenzie's custody, so she had no proof David gave her custody of Anna. However, Shannon and her attorney fought for custody. Shannon mistreats Anna, making her very upset she can't live with her grandmother. Anna ties a note to one of her birthday balloons and lets it float out the window. When a group of kids finds it, they decide to find Anna and her stepmother. With a lot of snooping around in Shannon's home, they prove that David left Anna in Mrs. McKenzie's custody.
