Presented in a few weeks at Annecy, the stop-motion film Kiri And Lou Go Raaa! is shown with a trailer.
Kiri And Lou Go Raaa! is the first stop-motion animated film produced in New Zealand, following Kiri and Lou, a series created in 2019 by three creatives in a garage and comprising 104 five-minute episodes.

Years later, the series has become a global success, translated into numerous languages, and Fiona Copland (producer), Harry Sinclair (writer and co-director), and Ant Elworthy (animator and co-director) have the idea of ​​raising the bar even further with a new chapter: a film that will premiere at Annecy.

The stories feature two prehistoric friends, Kiri and Lou, who embark on joyful adventures in a forest, playing, singing, and learning to manage childhood emotions through the power of friendship and imagination.

Handcrafted at Stretchy Studios, here's the trailer:
