Belle et Sébastien
2013 Drama/Adventure 1h 44m

In 1943, in the French Alps, Sébastien is a seven-year-old orphan living with César, an adoptive grandfather, and his niece, Angélina. The family lives in the village of Saint-Martin, whose inhabitants, despite the German occupation, secretly organize the passage of Jewish exiles into Switzerland. The village is also plagued by a "beast" who preys on the local animals, including César's.
