There is a memory that recently popped up that is driving me nuts.
Basically, sometime 10-15 years ago I saw some animated film. I cannot remember anything about this film except for two things.
One: About half-way/two-thirds of the way through the film some slimy con-man tricks the protagonist into entering what is pretty much a giant water wheel. He immediately locks her in and it is then revealed that he is keeping a bunch of people prisoner so that they rotate the wheel and power something. The protagonist and the other prisoners end up escaping by rotating the wheel so quickly that it breaks away and crashes down a hill.
Two: In the final scenes of the film the cast flies over various places they visited throughout the story. One of these places is the giant broken wheel that now has plants growing all over it.
So tell me: What the fuck am I thinking of?

Are the characters human or something else?

Actually, I think they weren't humans.
Uhhh...Secret of Nimh? The Great Mouse Detective? I...I mean, have you tried looking up animated mouse movies?

I did, I really did.
But it wasn't anything well-known or popular I think.

Thumbelina?

Definitely not Thumbelina.

The funny thing is before I had come to the conclusion that the characters were anthropomorphic animals, some film involving Thumbelina was actually my first guess.
I looked through every animated adaptation of it that I could find and none of them ended up being it.
