Fun Trailer for Dutch Animated Movie ‘Fox and Hare Save the Forest’

“Operation Rescue Owl is underway!” Screen Daily has revealed the first official promo trailer for an indie animated movie titled Fox and Hare Save the Forest, the latest creation from a Dutch filmmaker named Mascha Halberstad (following her film Oink previously). This is premiering at the 2024 Berlin Film Festival in the kid’s section titled Generation – which kicks off this week in Germany. “The 3D animation follows a group of animal friends who embark on an adventure when a lake threatens to submerge their forest home, perhaps the work of a megalomaniac beaver.” It centers on the adventures of best friends Fox and Hare. One day, they find out that Owl has gone missing, and they embark on a journey to find him. While the film is a 3D digital creation, it has a stop-motion look & feel by making the characters out of clay and scanning them. The voice cast includes Rob Rackstraw, Dan Skinner, Jamie Quinn, Teresa Galagher, and Sarah Madigan. I like the look of this, I just wish the dialogue wasn’t so rough and the story wasn’t so derivative. // Continue Reading ›
