SYNOPSIS
Director — Hugo de Faucompret
Tv Special — 26′
2D animation – TV Paint
Jane (8 years old) is a strong-minded little girl. Her mother Cécile, however, is going through a little depression. She decides to get help, and sends Jane to spend Christmas at her grandmother’s, in the countryside.
Jane leaves reluctantly: she has no friends there, and “Granny Onions” only ever cooks… onions (and they smell really bad…).
Against all odds, Jane’s holidays turn out to be a real adventure. In the countryside, she meets unexpected friends in Leon and Sonia, two local kids, and also Cloclo, a gigantic bum with equal talent for jokes and music.
Thanks to Leon, Sonia, Cloclo and Granny Onions, Jane will understand that Life can be a feast, after all. And as she learns to open herself up to others, she may well inspire her mother the strength she needs to get out of the hospital of gloomy people..
