Les Poissons

About This Movie

Les Poissons is one of those charming little pieces that takes you on a whimsical journey beneath the waves. The animation, crafted from paper cutouts, has this distinct look that feels almost like a collage come to life, giving it a unique texture. The pacing is gentle, almost meditative, which allows you to really soak in the atmosphere it creates. Themes of marine life interactions play out in a way that feels both playful and thoughtful. It’s not flashy, but there’s something about the simplicity and creativity here that draws you in, making it stand out in the realm of animation from that time.

Les Poissons remains somewhat obscure, with limited availability across formats, making it a rare find for collectors. It was released in a few different mediums over the years, but most copies are hard to come by. Enthusiasts of vintage animation and those drawn to unique artistic styles often seek it out, though it doesn't have the broader recognition that some of its contemporaries do.
