Belle & Sebastian 

cert. PG | by Nicolas Vanier, with Félix Bossuet, Tchéky Karyo 2013, 104′, feature, in French with English subtitles 

Belle and Sebastian is set high in the snowy Alps during the Second World War. The resourceful Sebastian is a lonely boy who tames and befriends a giant, wild mountain dog, Belle – even though the villagers believe her to be ‘the beast’ that has been killing their sheep. Set against breathtaking wildlife scenery and a dramatic time in history, and co-starring Tchéky Karyo, one of France’s most popular actors, the film has become one family favourite.
