Le Roi et l'Oiseau
Paul Grimault
This animated marvel is set in the realm of a tyrannical ruler, where the only one who dares mock him is... a bird. The king is in love with a shepherdess, but she loves a chimney sweep, who becomes the object of the king’s fury. Adapted from Hans Christian Andersen by Jacques Prévert. Doisneau photographed the making of the film in Paul Grimault’s studio.
