La Fontain - A tücsök és a hangya filmstrip

This slide film presents the best-known work from La Fontaine's animal fables, illustrated with charming drawings by Lajos Darvas. The classic moral tale contrasts the diligent ant with the idle grasshopper, using their characters to highlight the values of hard work and life's essentials.

The story's central message is that whoever does not work should not eat. In this version, however, the kind-hearted ant saves the starving grasshopper from certain death. The tale has played an important role in educating generations of children.

The film was produced in Hungarian in 2017, and is also available in English, German and French. It is a fine choice for both entertaining and educating children.
