Synopsis
Mune: Guardian of the Moon (2015) is a French-Canadian animated fantasy you can watch online on iFILM. It unfolds on a world where day and night do not turn on their own. The Sun and the Moon are hauled across the sky by hand, and each one has a sworn guardian.
A young faun named Mune is chosen to guard the Moon ahead of far more obvious candidates, and on his very first night he loses it. That slip is all the underworld titan Necross needs to steal the Sun and snuff it out. To set the worlds right, Mune teams up with the cocky new Sun guardian Sohone and Glim, a girl sculpted from wax who melts in heat and cracks in cold. In the original French dub, Omar Sy voices Sohone.
The feature debut of Benoit Philippon and Alexandre Heboyan stands apart from most European animation for its tactile, hand-touched look and unusually bold color, with several sequences built by hand rather than pure CGI. It is a warm 85-minute fairy tale for family viewing that trusts its audience and rewards grown-ups with genuinely inventive world design. Stream Mune: Guardian of the Moon (2015) online on iFILM.
