Sacha The Bear

Director: Henri Desaunay.
Playful, beautifully designed adaptation of the fairy tale Goldilocks and the three bears. Except this time, the bear comes to visit her. A hunter is after a bear in the forest. The bear hides in the house of the little girl Goldilocks, who gives him food and plays with him. But then everything changes.
