Mau

About This Movie

Mau is this quirky little animation from 2010 that captures a unique blend of humor and whimsy. The story of two stray cats sneaking milk from a pharaoh’s bath is both charming and oddly relatable. You really feel the tension as one cat gets drawn into this seductive life of luxury, almost like a cautionary tale wrapped in fur and whiskers. The pacing has this nice ebb and flow that keeps you engaged without overstaying its welcome. The animation has a delightful, hand-drawn quality that gives it a certain warmth, and the character expressions, though simple, convey so much. The whole vibe feels like a playful jab at greed and desire, making you chuckle while you think a bit deeper.

Charming hand-drawn animation style.Clever take on themes of greed and desire.Catchy comedic moments and pacing.
