Little Amélie with Liane-Cho Han and Maïlys Vallade | Picturehouse

Lucy Fenwick Elliott talks to co-directors Liane-Cho Han and Maïlys Vallade about their new BAFTA and Oscar-nominated animation Little Amélie.     The world is a perplexing, peaceful mystery to Amélie until a miraculous encounter with chocolate ignites her wild sense of curiosity. As she develops a deep attachment to her family's housekeeper, Nishio-san, Amélie discovers the wonders of nature as well as the emotional truths hidden beneath the surface of her family's idyllic life as foreigners in post-war Japan. Based on Amélie Nothomb’s best-selling autobiographical novel, Little Amélie is a visually enchanting tale about curiosity, courage, and the healing power of human connection.
