Fables in Delirium: The Hen, The Elephant and The Snake [Les Fables en délire: La Poule, l’Eléphant et le Serpent]

Three unlikely animals are put together in this funny French cartoon. A hen, an elephant, and a snake provide a means to contemplate different environments, and the different cultural messages that we attach to each place. The green forest of the hen becomes the jungle of the elephant, before concluding in the yellow desert of the snake. Although the animals are not friendly at first, the film concludes with a good-humoured celebration of diversity between the elephant and the chicken. This funny and accessible cartoon provides a great introduction to wordless texts, which will be familiar to many young people in its similarity to mainstream cartoons.
