The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse

Directed by
Runtime
5 min

Synopsis

In this animated short, Evelyn Lambart employs her signature animation style—paper figures and vividly colored backgrounds—to reinterpret Aesop’s fable about two mice leading very different lives. The film conveys the message that a simple, peaceful existence is preferable to a luxurious but perilous one.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
