40/26
This is Michel Hazanavicius’ first animated film
During a war, a poor woodcutter and his wife live in a large forest. One day, the wife finds and saves a little girl, which irrevocably changes the lives of the couple and those whose path the child will cross.
It’s the best 2024 release I’ve seen so far this year, and it’s mid-December 2024
It tells a story set in Poland during World War II, almost like a folk tale. Most of the action takes place in a forest, as is so typical in the folk tales mentioned above, and revolves around a couple of woodcutters who adopt a little Jewish girl thrown from a deportation train passing through their forest.
She was expelled by her father to save her from certain death in Auschwitz
I won’t go into the details of the plot so you can see for yourself. I would just like to add that the film will lead to a deeply philosophical conclusion.
The visual effects of the film are excellent
Even on the technical side, everything is perfectly done. The drawing style is just right, neither too detailed nor too approximate.
Most of the scenes are shown in low lighting with dominant gray tones, highlighting the horrors of war and the most infamous mass destruction in the history of humanity
And then the soundtrack, which is sublime: the music, the sound effects, the narration and the dubbing (I saw the original version in French), quite adequate to present this little gem of a film. In conclusion, it is one of the best films that deal with the theme of racism and the Holocaust in particular, by its artistic approach and the story it wants to tell.
