Renowned French animator Jacques-Rémy Girerd created this gorgeous film from
an astounding 500,000 hand-painted frames of animation. *Mia and the
Migoo*features superb performances by
*John DiMaggio, Whoopi Goldberg, Matthew Modine, Wallace Shawn,* and *James
Woods*.

*"Mia and the Migoo *is a work of art, breathtaking to behold, with
backgrounds that invoke Van Gogh, Monet, and Cezanne." The film is a
fable-like journey of a young girl who must overcome her fears on a mystical
quest to find her missing father and save the environment and the world from
the destruction inflicted by callous corporate development and military
interests.
 *THE STORY*:   "One night Mia has a premonition. So after saying a few
words of parting at her mother’s grave, she sets out on a cross continent
journey, though mountains and jungles in search of her father, who has been
trapped in a landslide at a construction site on a remote tropical lake. In
the middle of the lake stands the ancient Tree of Life, watched over by
innocent, bumbling forest spirits called the Migoo, who grow and change
shape as they please, morphing from small childlike beings to petulant
giants. The Migoo have been disrupting the construction to protect this
sacred site – and now together with Mia they join in a fight to find Mia's
father and save the Tree, with the future of life on Earth hanging in the
balance."
 *MIA AND THE MIGOO*:    Winner of Best Animated Feature at the European
Film Awards. Animation, Jacques-Rémy Girerd, France/Italy, 92 minutes, Rated
PG.    http://miaandthemigoo.com/
