The Little Prince

The Little Prince

In our "Little Prince," puppetry meets acting, melancholy meets heartfelt warmth, and truth meets reality.

1962 · 65 min · Family

Only a few steps are needed for the Little Prince to circumnavigate his planet. As small as his world is, the treasure hidden within it is all the greater: a single rose, to which the Prince feels his unconditional love. When she sends him away one day, the Little Prince embarks on a journey that takes him to strange planets with headstrong inhabitants and finally lands him on Earth, where, with a mixture of naiveté and wisdom, he wins the hearts of all those he encounters.
