The All-Time Classic Puppet Animation

[SYNOPSIS]
The "ugly doll" was nonetheless a treasure to Clara.
In Germany during the 19th century, Clara, a girl in Stahlbaum family, receives a gift from Uncle Drosselmeyer. The gift, a "nutcracker doll", leads Clara to dream about fantasies in her sleep. This beautiful puppet-animation film questions what is meant by trusting other people with kindness, compassion and love.
