某年夏天，六年级小学生裕太（武井证 配音）独自来到位于深山的萤之丘水库。当年他曾和父亲来到这里捉独角仙，一年前父亲意外去世，曾留下无数美好回忆的水库，对他来说自然别有一番意义。在此期间，他遭遇罕见的暴雨，结果不小心跌落水库。幸运的是裕太成功获救，在一个古色古香的小村庄里，他结识了可爱天真的小女孩纱荣子（木村彩由实 配音）。偶然间裕太发现，自己正身处昭和25年（1950），而这里正是后来沉入水库的小村庄。意外穿越时空三十年，对裕太来说究竟意味着什么呢？ 本片根据网络作家川口雅幸的同名原作改编。
The green Verdies are the tiny, but brave guardians of the lakeside. The young Verdies only become guardians when their hair turns brown. Until then, however, life is boring. The youngsters with green hair are not allowed to fly on warblers, not allowed to row alone, and they're not allowed to ride wild frogs at the rodeo. Willy Whistle's big dream is to become a guardian, but his curiosity always gets him into trouble. However, the whole lake becomes at risk when the enemies of the lakeside, the Grimps and the swans, enter into alliance. The guardians are helpless, but Willy comes up with a daring plan in order to save his home and his trapped friend, Jeremiah Jump. Luckily he is not alone, because Grandpa, the water snakes and the frogs also come to his aid.
