“Sauvages” at Cannes!

Claude Barras will present his new film “Sauvages” at Cannes.

The good news is out, “Sauvages” will be screened during the Young Audience Sessions at the Cannes Film Festival at the end of May. After “My Life as a Zucchini” in 2016, Claude Barras returns to the Croisette thanks to its selection. Following this, another piece of news arrived; the stop-motion animated film will also be screened in competition at the Annecy Animation Festival. Wonderful recognition for Claude Barras and everyone involved in the making of the film.

“Sauvages”

On the island of Borneo, Kéria, a rebellious pre-adolescent, is disconnected from a part of her family from a tribe of hunter-gatherers. Her chance encounter with Oshi, a little orangutan, will push her to rediscover her roots in the Indonesian forest.
