BABAR – IL RE DEGLI ELEFANTI

The young elephant Babar lives happily in the jungle, until when, one day, some hunters kill his mum. He runs away to the city, where an old lady, Madame, adopts him and teaches him how to live civilly. Babar becomes a wise leader and can go back to his fellows to help them to fight the cruel rhinoceroses. He will meet the beloved Celeste, with whom he will create a family. The director says:” the secret of this endless success lies not only in the original graphic style and the simple warm colours, but also in the children’s perception of this cartoon character. Babar with his red bow tie on a green suit, always showing a caring and peaceful attitude, able to administer life in his reign with wisdom, has become a kind of guide through the discovery of the modern civilisation for the youngest ones.“
