Top animators in France, Belgium, and Switzerland have created adorable and colorful short films with subjects such as friendship, acceptance, and perseverance. In The Big Bad Wolf Is Back, Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother ignore the wolf’s attempts to scare them. Zibilla features a zebra, adopted by horses, who meets a wild lion and learns to find her voice. The Cherry on Top is about a shy prince who seeks solace in food rather than trying to court a beautiful peacock, until a doctor prescribes a mysterious cure. In So High Up a family of giraffes is snubbed after they move into a new forest, until their son saves the day. The wordless The Last Day of Autumn has a variety of forest animals building vehicles for a race at autumn’s end. Age 5+
