OSKAR & LILY, Une enfance réfugiée
Official Selection – Montreal International Children’s Film Festival (FIFEM) – 2021Official Selection – FilmFestival Max Ophuls Preis, Germany – 2020 Presented by the Service d’aide aux Néo-Canadiens The Chechen refugee kids Oskar (8) and Lilli (13), who have been living in Austria for six years, are about to be deported along with their mother. When their mother attempts suicide it results in the short-term suspension of the deportation – but also in the forced separation of the family. The children’s hope that they will be reunited with their mother is nourished by their love for each other and challenges all bureaucratic obstacles with passion and poetry. A bitter-sweet odyssey about the many ways of perceiving the world around you in order to survive. 12 years and older.
The Big Bad Fox and Other Tales
From the creators of the Academy Award®- nominated Ernest & Celestine comes another hilarious, heartwarming tale of animal misfits destined to become a classic. The countryside isn’t always as calm and peaceful as it’s made out to be, and the animals on this farm are particularly agitated: a fox who mothers a family of chicks, a rabbit who plays the stork, and a duck who wants to be Santa Claus. If you think life in the country is a walk in the park, think again! Directors Benjamin Renner and Patrick Imbert adapt Renner’s own acclaimed graphic novel into a delirious, delightful triptych of interlocking stories, with a pacing and visual spontaneity that harkens back to classic Looney Tunes shorts and slapstick two-reelers. But underneath the gags (and there are plenty of them), the three stories offer a sensitive and beautiful portrayal of family, and the anxieities of modern life. 6 years and older.
Le Voyage du prince
10 years and older An old Prince runs aground on an unknown shore. Injured and lost, he is found by young Tom and taken in by his parents, 2 scientists who have been exiled from their community because they dared to believe in the existence of other monkey civilisations… The Prince, guided by his new young friend Tom, discovers with great fascination and enthusiasm this society, even though it is actually quite staid and rigid. During this time, the two researchers dream of convincing the Academy of the veracity of their previously rejected thesis… Presented in the form of an account, similar to a fable, The Prince’s Voyage is a kind of travel diary set in a world that is quite familiar to us, but very surprising for this old monkey.
