R\u00e9mi Chay\u00e9\u2019s stunning hand-drawn Arctic adventure will probably be that animated Oscar nominee you haven\u2019t heard of<\/p>\n

You know how every year when the Oscar nominations are announced, there\u2019s always one animated feature you\u2019ve never heard of? This year, it\u2019s going to be Long Way North, R\u00e9mi Chay\u00e9\u2019s stunning hand-drawn Arctic adventure.<\/p>\n

Long Way North is set in the late 19th century, and follows the odyssey of a teenage Russian aristocrat named Sasha (voiced in the English dub by Chloe Dunn), who sets off to find her beloved grandfather, an explorer who\u2019s disappeared somewhere in the Arctic Circle. This would be a dangerous journey even for experienced seamen, and Sasha is just a kid. But she\u2019s brave and strong, and she\u2019s willing to go as far as she has to.<\/p>\n

Director Chay\u00e9 \u2013 making his feature directorial debut after honing his skills on films like The Painting and The Secret Of Kells \u2013 crafts a beautiful, epic tale that pulls its emotional heft from a compelling story, simple (but not simplistic) character design and a narrative with a real sense of risk.<\/p>\n

Moreover, it\u2019s just plain gorgeous. Don\u2019t wait for Netflix, see this on a big screen. Now that you\u2019ve heard of it, you have no excuse not to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
