Azur et Asmar

Azur & Asmar: The Princes' Quest (French: Azur et Asmar) is a 2006 French animated fairytale fantasy feature film[2] written and directed by Michel Ocelot. It is his fourth feature, though his first wholly original creation since Kirikou and the Sorceress, and his first 3D computer animation, albeit an atypical employment of this medium with two-dimensional, painted backgrounds and non-photorealistic rendering. Like most of his films it is an original fairy tale, in this case inspired by the folklore (including, but not limited to, the One Thousand and One Nights) and decorative art of North Africa and the Middle East[3] and with an increased degree of characterisation relative to his previous works which pushes it over into the genre of fairytale fantasy.

MY COMMENT:

Wonderful animation not only concerning its content but its aesthetic as well. About identity and difference, the bond of friendship... How all people have the same blood color.
