A wonderful fairy tale in modern realities about the fact that we don’t need to grow up ahead of time and forget that we were children too. Adults lack this childish naivety, imagination and faith in miracles, which is why everyday life, routine, and gray everyday life take away the color and joy from life. 7.5/10
to say that I cried like a scumbag over this cartoon is to say nothing. Tears flowed like a river. And the paper animation is magnificent.
Based on the fairy tale by A. de Saint-Exupéry. A kind, colorful cartoon about adults’ lack of understanding of a child’s problems, and the fact that as we grow up, we forget that we need to dream, enjoy the little things, and just look at the stars.
