Our suggestions
Oscar-nominated. The story of an unlikely friendship between a bear, Ernest, and a young mouse named Celestine.
"Ernest & Celestine is a beautiful French animated comedy, based on the book series by Belgian illustrator and author Gabrielle Vincent. The story follows the unlikely friendship between Celestine the mouse and the misunderstood bear Ernest, who rebel against what is believed and expected of them, even starting a life of crime. Through stunning watercolor-style art direction, the film tells a story about acceptance and transcending prejudices, with much more originality and heart than many other contemporary offerings."
