Once there was a boy and one day he found a penguin at his door...
...he didn't know where it came from or who it belonged to. The penguin looked sad and the boy thought it must be lost. So he decided to help it find its way home, even if that meant rowing all the way to the South Pole... Based on the best-selling picture book by Oliver Jeffers. Lost and Found is a breathtaking piece of animation lovingly created by Contender Creative and Studio AKA. It will delight both young and old.

I saw this at Christmas purely by accident and was moved so much by it that I bought it as soon as it was released on DVD.
It is an absolutely delightful film which is filled with those moments that not only captivates the little ones, but will also keep the adults more than interested to see what happens to the little cute penguin.
I have to admit that even on my third viewing it still brings a tear to my eye. This is a future classic that we will be watching in 20 years time. Wonderful stuff.
Don't get me wrong, this is a beautifully animated short film with a lovely soundtrack. However as a parent to a 3 year old who has read this book too many times to count, i was very disappointed that the words of the book are not used as the narration. They would have fitted perfectly within the animation and there are certain parts of the book that are missed out. My 3 yr old still enjoyed this, but i think he would have felt a lot more engaged if he had recognised the words from the book. I found myself not being able to enjoy the film as i just wanted to hear the words from the book. If you havent read the book then im sure you will enjoy this animation, but if like myself you know the words by heart then you may feel slightly let down.
I saw this film originally at the Bradford Animation Festival a few years ago and never before have I witnessed a children's film moving so many people to tears by the end. I would have laughed... had I not been so red of eye myself! It's beautiful, heartwarming stuff. The musical score fits perfectly with the animation and I guarantee it will become a DVD that you take off the shelf to watch year after year. The price is fantastic for the quality of film you're getting.
Not a bad word to say about this enchanting short film......Beautiful
