Mostly wordless, short, animated films about animals from Magnet Films, a distributor of award-winning shorts, including many Oscar winners! Films include:


The Little Bird and the Bees, about a little bird and some bees who look after the first flowers on the maple tree, while being closely watched by a fox.

Black & White, a “live” animated film about tolerance towards strangers.

Little Gray Wolfy series of four films featuring the eponymous wolf experiencing all four seasons.

The Fox & the Bird, about a solitary fox who finds himself improvising fatherhood for a freshly hatched baby bird.

Perfect Houseguest, about a mouse with a penchant for cleaning.

Hedgehog Spikney, about an altruistic hedgehog who runs a soup kitchen for the needy forest community.

Ink, a hilarious short about a neat-freak octopus.

It would seem, that nothing interesting could happen to The Little Grey Wolfy in a boring sleeping winter forest. A world around is white, silent and cold, and poor Wolfy feels lonely and hungry.


But everything is changing as if by magic, when he finds one unusual thing. Fantastic adventures begin, and all around him is suddenly filled with bright colors, life and action. Or is it just his memories about warm summer days?
