Little Cousins
Director
Within a relatively small framework this short cartoon tells us about two little cousins—a beautiful one and an ugly one—that prove that all that glitters is not gold, and even an embodied beauty can have the heart of a werewolf. From an artistic point of view, the message of the story is underlined by Salamoun's specific style.
