Movie Synopsis

After the worldwide success of March of The Penguins, Luc Jacquet invites us on a journey to the heart of a marvellous tale, the extraordinary meeting of a fox and a little girl.Through an exceptional relationship, each reveals its world to the other…A pure emotion, shown in unforgettable images.

A young girl of about 10 years lives in a solitary peasant’s house on the edge of the Jurassic mountains in the East of France. One day in autumn, when she is on her way to school through the forest, she observes a hunting fox.

Fascinated to the point that she forgets all fear, she dares to go up to him. For an instant, the barriers that separate the child and the animal disappear. The fox flees from her but she feels a strong desire to meet the fox again.

It is the beginning of the most amazing and of the most fabulous of friendships.Thanks to the fox, the little girl discovers a wild and secret environment.And so begins an adventure which will change her life, her vision and ours…

Filmed at the scenic mountains of Ains as well as the National Park of Abruzzes, Director Luc Jacquet’s film will offer audiences an unprecedented journey into the magical, secret world of this most elusive and enigmatic creature. An adult female narrator (Isabelle Carré) will relate the tale as a memoir of her childhood.
