Longway North

Sasha, a young Russian aristocratic girl at the end of the 19th century, dreams of the Great North and languishes over Oloukine, her grandfather, a renowned scientist and Arctic explorer, who has not returned  from his last expedition to conquer the North Pole.
He transmitted his vocation to Sasha which is far from satisfying her parents as they have already arranged for their daughter to marry.
She revolts against this destiny, glees and is resolved to going to join Oloukine a long way north. 

Video made by Sacrebleu Productions, a studio that started on 1999 in Paris, France.
My knowledge of french is almost none, so it's hard for me to understand their website, but something I did understand is that this animated film was presented to the Cartoon Movie festival in Lyon 7- 9 of march 2012.
