BECOMING HUMAN, ONE FEELING AT A TIME.

Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film.

Born in Japan to Belgian parents, Amélie enters the world convinced she is a god. Silent, immobile, and observing everything, as her senses slowly awaken, she begins to discover who she is.

Adapted from Amélie Nothomb's beloved autobiographical novel and nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, this Cannes 2025 world premiere renders childhood as pure heightened consciousness — every sensation enormous, every discovery irreversible. The twelfth highest-rated film of 2025 on Letterboxd, and number two directorial debut, with top rankings across animation, debut and women directors.
