Konferenz der tiere/Animaux & Cie/Animals United

The trailer in German:


...in French:


...and in English:

...and it's a film about the importance of water, the misuse of our natural resources, cooperation in order to reach our goals or simply the earthly conditions as they are transformed by humans causing catastrophic consequences for all living creatures.
The scenario is however - and unfortunately - weak and one is constantly wondering if there are something more to this film than just releasing the water and how to achieve this goal - but no, it's not.
Even though the question per se is important this film doesn't add relevant information to what have been told before in documentaries or animated films. It doesn't provoke us to reflect on a deeper leve either. A pity.

A somewhat charming (as we often write when it's neither innovative nor exciting in any sense) piece of work but not more.

Directors: Reinhard Klooss and Holger Tappe.

We watch it at Cinéma Lux in La Châtre.
