Mala (Battle for Terra)

Mala is the main protagonist of the 2007 computer-animated film, Battle for Terra.
She is voiced by Evan Rachel Wood.
== Story ==
Mala is a mechanically gifted and rebellious girl who questions their society's restriction on science and the Forbidden Zone. After an ominous eclipse, space ships descend and abduct several of the Terrians who mistake them for gods; among the abducted is Mala's father. This prompts her to try getting abducted herself, leading to a dangerous chase as she catches the attention of Lt. Jim Stanton. After a harrowing pursuit, she outmaneuvers him into a wind tunnel and his ship crashes.
Mala takes him to her home, and with the help of his Robot Buddy, Giddy, keeps him from being suffocated in Terra's atmosphere. Stranded, Jim agrees to help Mala find her father in exchange for help returning home. Things only get more complicated for the two as friendship, loyalty, and family set them and their people up for a devastating battle that could wipe out one of the two races.
== Personality ==
A precocious feisty young girl who says what she thinks and thinks what she says, Mala has no qualms about questioning the Elders or her own father.  She is everything that most young Terrians, and most young girls and boys, are not.  She loves science and the science of invention and is so bold as to build her inventions and put them to use – a skill and knowledge that will prove useful to her in the days to come.
