Kirikou and the Wild Beasts
Kirikou et les bêtes sauvages
2005
Synopsis
The tiny Senegalese hero Kirikou is back, as his Grandfather begins to narrate how the clever boy learned to become a gardener, a detective, a maker of pottery, a merchant, a traveler, and a doctor—while remaining, as ever, the smallest and bravest of heroes.
Editorial
Seven years after the widely acclaimed Kirikou and the Sorceress, master of French animation Michel Ocelot crafted a new chapter in the life of the Senegalese infant boy—a story as thoughtful as the one from the first installment. Simple but engaging, this is an uplifting tale for all ages.
