One of a kind, french animation series typical french fantasy and some thriller line...

It's quite original, you can just feel the french touches. The execution is a bit poor, especially the voices and oversimplyfied characters, but it still has some kind of magic to it.

The storyline is unbelievable, or at least is should have been. The idea is great, but lacks on the execution part, it got a bit childish, for an animation series that I don't think should have targeted little children with all the mystical tone to begin with.

I gave it a ten because all the fitting greenish animation, soundtracks, enigmatic storyline and tone, and especially because it is so original, that I'm willing to overlook all the problems, and simply enjoy it.

French-language cinema, whether in France, Québec, or other Francophone regions, explores cultural identity, social change, and the tension between the individual and society. French cinema is not only celebrated for its intellectual experimentation and auteur traditions, but also its success in mainstream comedy, romance, and commercial entertainment. In Québec, films often focus on questions of language, belonging, and community within a distinct cultural landscape.
