About Momo: (The novel by Michael Neverending Story Ende)
... just outside an unnamed city lives Momo, a little girl of mysterious origin. The Men in Grey ... represent the Timesavings Bank and promote the idea of time which can be deposited to their Bank and returned later with interest. In reality, the time people save is actually lost to them ... Momo, however, is a wrench in the plans of the Timesaving Bank.
