Sahara

Sahara (2017) is an animated desert adventure you can watch online on iFILM. Two snake clans share the dunes. The green grass snakes lounge in a lush oasis with all the water they want, while the venomous vipers scrape by in the heat, fighting drought, cold nights and hungry birds. When a young cobra from the poor side falls for a beauty across the sands, he sets off on a long trek with his loyal scorpion sidekick to win her.

Directed by Pierre Coré, the French voice cast includes Omar Sy, Louane Emera and Jean Dujardin. The animation is bright, the pace is quick, and the gags land for kids and parents alike, with a gentle point underneath about water and love not belonging only to the well-off. An easy, good-natured pick for a family night. Stream Sahara (2017) online on iFILM.
