This is a beautiful Irish animated film from a few years back. I love the style of the animations which mimics the look of the designs in the Book. No perspective in the backgrounds can take a little bit of getting used to.

It's a simple little story filled with wonder and gorgeous imagery. There's also some great evil bits in it mainly to do with a dark monster that lives in the forest and the invading vikings that kill everyone. I love their design too. There are also some great funny bits, most of the m at the start before things become darker.

The music and sound is great, the voices a good, all in all it's a great film with a mythical quality of an old folk tale. It's sweet, simple and effective. One of my favourite pieces of animation from the last few years.
