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.

The film takes us into a wonderful world of one curious and cute little wolf, his good friends, and their funny and exciting adventures. A story about how an imagination can change a world around us, make it more interesting and fill it with magic.


A new pure spring comes again to the wood. The trees and the beasts wake up feeling good - Spring is the time of an ice drift on the river. Wolfy and Hare, carried away by their running, suddenly find themselves on the floe in the middle of an icy stream. The cold stream hides many dangers, but their imagination comes to help. And their friends of course. Across the seas, nothing can frighten them. Set sail captain Wolf and Hare at the helm.
