“The film is simply gorgeous. It’s both
a pacifist and ecological fable, a film
aimed at the whole family that leaves
the audience in a state of wonder. It is
a pure gem.”

- Marcel Jean, artistic director
at Annecy IFF -

“Perlimps could be seen as a dazzling love letter for children (...). It encourages kids’ awareness of social, ecological
issues and a taste for art, while delivering a film of artistic
ambition and visual complexity.”
