The TVI Take
A bear and a mouse form an unlikely friendship across their societies' divide. Watercolor animation style is gorgeous and distinctive.
Cognitive demands from the social allegory about prejudice and conformity. Low direct educational value but rich thematic content about friendship across difference. French animation at its most charming.
