Synopsis

Teenager Jake spends most of his time indoors playing video games, so his mum decides that a present might persuade him to venture outdoors. Jake is initially delighted to find that she’s bought him a puppy, but a three-legged dog isn’t quite what Jake had in mind. However, as the dog plays happily with its ball, Jake comes to realise that appearances aren’t everything. ‘The Present’ is an acclaimed short film, the director of which has since gone on to work in the animation department at Disney on titles including ‘Moana’ and ‘Frozen II’.

What our educators say

"Some of them saw a clip from Wakolda (The German Doctor) on TV recently and really wanted to watch it. So I thought I’d take a chance, not expecting them to watch the whole film but the majority were absolutely gripped. "
