Princes and Princesses

Him (Philippe Cheytion) and Her (Arlette Mirapeu) pick a tale at the start of each short, and Théo (Yves Barsacq), an art teacher, tells them how it goes. Each story has a prince or princess in it, and Michel Ocelot cuts every figure from black paper and sets it against a backlit scene in bright color. The teacher listens, asks questions, and keeps making up the next one.
