Polly Pocket (originally known as Polly Pocket's The First Movie or Polly and the Pockets) is a 2004 direct-to-DVD film based on the Polly Pocket line of dolls. It was the first animated film based on the franchise, the first of three developed by Universal Studios, succeeded by films Cool at the Pocket Plaza and PollyWorld. Despite its obscure reception in the United States, the film became popular with Latin American countries due to the high sales of the Polly Pocket line at the time in the region.

Plot

Polly Pocket is a rich and cheerful girl who has four friends at school: Lila, Ana, Shani, and Lea, who together form the band Polly and the Pockets.

One day, Polly and her friends are given homework about lunar eclipses. Lila is nervous because if she does not do well on the assignment she will be grounded and unable to play in the band at the school dance. Polly and her friends organize a trip to a water park to learn about lunar eclipses. Meanwhile Beth, a classmate who is jealous of Polly, decides to sabotage their trip by giving Lila a camera that's been tampered with, so that she will be unable to photograph the eclipse.

Polly and her friends have fun at the water park. At night when they start to do their homework they notice that a dolphin cub is stuck near the beach, and they decide to help it return to the sea. When they return home, Lila discovers that the photos she took of the eclipse were spoiled because the film was full of double exposures. But in the end, Polly creates a plan to save the project presentation with the help of drawings made by Ana, and Polly and her band manage to perform at the school dance.
