Animals

Reality meets magic in this unusual coming-of-age drama from Spain, as a shy teenager (Oriol Pla) clings to childhood through his imaginative relationship with a teddy bear. As he begins to experience the stirrings of romantic passion for another student, breaking away from his dependence on the toy─which seems gifted with the power of speech─could be a treacherous undertaking.

Widescreen; Soundtrack: English and Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: Englishl; audio commentary; featurette; bonus shorts "Animals," "The Bear Truth."
