56 minutes
This selection of six lively, colourful animated shorts for kids aged six to nine is full of songs and classics that will get them moving! It includes Cordell Barker’s hilarious film Le chat colla… (The Cat Came Back), inspired by a folksong in which an old man is unable to get rid of a rascally little yellow cat; Co Hoedeman’s Mascarade (Masquerade), a longer film, dubbed in English, that demonstrates a variety of creative approaches, is set to music by Normand Roger and was created by one of the great figures of the NFB’s French Program Animation Studio; Christopher Hinton’s Mouches noires (Blackfly), a humorous film set to a popular English-language song, written by Wade Hemsworth, adapted into French by Kate and Anna McGarrigle, and sung by Marcel Aymar; John Weldon’s Canada vignettes: la valse du maître draveur (Canada Vignettes: Log Driver’s Waltz), which depicts a frenetic dance to a song performed by the aforementioned McGarrigle sisters; Norman McLaren’s Le merle, which uses cut-out animation and is set to the delightful rhythms of the folk song “Mon merle,” performed by Trio lyrique; and Martine Chartrand’s MacPherson, which puts into images the eponymous song by Félix Leclerc and explores his friendship with Frank Randolph Macpherson, the Jamaican-Canadian chemical engineer who inspired this song about log driving.
