Little Amélie

Adapted from Amélie Nothomb’s bestselling autobiography The Character of the Rain, Little Amélie transports us to Japan seen through the eyes of a thriving little girl decided to discover the world in her own terms. She is curious and loves to indulge in her Belgian grandma’s treats, but this doesn’t always fit in with the more traditional Japanese upbringing. The beautiful and colourful style will please the younger ones while the more tragic subjects will move older ones.

Little Amélie was nominated for Best Animated Feature at the 2026 BAFTAs and at the 98th Academy Awards.
