From the Oscar-winning director of The Artist comes a beautifully drawn, animated fable inspired by the rich tradition of European fairy tales. The Most Precious of Cargoes is a profoundly moving story of extraordinary acts of kindness, resilience and hope amidst the horrors of war.
'Likely to become a classic … An indelible parable destined to be watched and shared by generations to come.'
