This animated feature by Benjamin Massoubre and Amandine Fredon is a tender love letter to a father’s life and work.

In Detail

Fredon is the daughter of René Goscinny, the writer and co-creator of ‘Little Nicholas’. It takes place towards the end of the 1950s in Paris. Goscinny (voiced by Alain Chabat) and Jean-Jacques Sempé (voiced by Laurent Lafitte) invented the character Nicholas, a jovial prankster, whose days are punctuated by games with his group of friends.

When the fictional character is invited into the workshop of his “dads,” the roles are reversed, and it’s the creators who recount their childhoods, their careers, and their friendship with Little Nicholas.

Top prize winner at the Annecy Animation Film Festival.
