After the worldwide success of MARCH OF THE PENGUINS, Luc Jacquet invites us on a journey to the heart of a marvellous tale, the extraordinary meeting of a fox and a little girl. Through an exceptional relationship, each reveals its world to the other... A pure emotion, shown in unforgettable images. Director Luc Jacquet’s film will offer audiences an unprecedented journey into the magical, secret world of this most elusive and enigmatic creature. An adult female narrator (Isabelle Carré) will relate the tale as a memoir of her childhood. -
From the filmmakers who brought us The March of the Penguins, I guess that came with plenty of expectations for The Fox and the Child. From the harsh winters of the South Pole to the lush wilderness in France, the narrative now becomes part documentary and part fairy tale, which tells of the friendship between the two titular characters, Renard the fox and its friendship with the child who christened it, played by Bertille Noel-Beuneau.
