Pascal Le Nôtre

Somewhere between Montmartre and Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Jean-Jacques Sempé and René Goscinny lean over a large white sheet of paper and bring to life a mischievous and endearing boy, Little Nicolas. From schoolyard games and fights, to summer camp pranks and camaraderie, Nicolas lives a merry and enriching childhood.

Esta é a história de um rapaz diferente dos outros, que sonha em encontrar o seu lugar ao sol. Tal como a lua passa por diferentes fases, também o Kali tem de enfrentar os seus medos e demónios interiores para, no final, encontrar a passagem para a luz. Um dia ele vai desaparecer… ou talvez seja apenas mais uma fase de mudança.

In this animated short, a terrible curse deprives Balthasar's kingdom of its stories. Taking the unicorn's horn back into The Belly of the Earth is the solution. Poppety will lead an expedition, by chance uncovering a hitherto closely guarded family secret.

O amor fez as malas e deixou o castelo. A rainha voltou para o reino de Skedaddle. Mas a perda de uma pessoa é um ganho do canalha: Bonifácio, um contador de histórias, vê na rainha abandonada o alvo perfeito para seus encantos banais. Quando o verão se aproxima, ele se transforma em um bajulador e canta seus elogios. As coisas teriam funcionado perfeitamente se a Princesa Molly não tivesse chegado ao local. Ao visitar sua mãe, ela rapidamente descobre a fraude: a rainha acha que encontrou um novo marido em Bonifácio. Mas o contador de histórias está realmente interessado apenas nas lendas do reino.

In this animated short, a young couple washed onto a strange, inhospitable shore, attempts to transform the land into an Eden. Through great effort they prosper, learning to conquer nature and their environment. But what will their victory mean? Alternately a vision of paradise and purgatory, with allusions to the Book of Genesis and prehistory, the film tells the story of human beings and their conquests, offering a dark, critical view of the rise and fall of civilizations.

In the vestibule of a hospital room, a young boy waits to see his dying mother. The clamor and spiralling movements of bodies around him intensify, forming a grotesque circus—a cacophonous circle that pushes the child back, depriving him of one final touch of his mother's hand. Using rotoscoped drawings suggestive of charcoal sketches, as well as 3D and object animation techniques, The Circus compels viewing with its unsettling realism. Colour is employed metaphorically to subtly express the promise and the memory of maternal affection. Nicolas Brault's highly personal film, suffused with poetic modesty, casts a poignantly sincere gaze on the heartbreak of a child facing the fearful, mysterious experience of his mother's death.

São capazes de guardar um segredo?... Este domingo vai ser diferente. Nem pomos os pés dentro do carro. A mãe e o pai não vão discutir e nós vamos brincar num jardim de couves gigantes.

As the mysterious “bloated belly” disease spreads through their kingdom, Princess Molly teams up with Léon the bear to outwit a conniving storyteller.
