"One of Europe's most anticipated toon features … highly-polished with an animation style and an aesthetic reminiscent of Disney or Studio Ghibli." – Variety

In a fantastical universe where the Sun and the Moon are protected by fabled warriors and powerful magic, the undersized but spirited Mune is a most unlikely hero. When he's unexpectedly crowned the new Guardian of the Moon, a demon of the underworld steals the Sun and it's up to Mune and his friends Sohone, the Sun Guardian, and Glim, a girl made entirely of wax, to save the world and get it back.

Writer/director Benoît Philippon and director Alexandre Heboyan (animator on Kung Fu Panda) have conjured a world of richness and beauty in this fast-paced adventure. Evoking the spirit and scope of Miyazaki and the heart and irreverence of Pixar, Mune is an animated film of inventiveness and intelligence about the timeless themes of the battle between good and evil, and the power of believing in yourself.

Winner of the TIFF Kids International Film Festival Young People's Jury Award for Best Feature Film.

"A gentle but quite serious adventure of nature and human nature … a beauty to behold." – Zippy Frames
