Your Friend the Rat

HISTORY FROM THE P.O.V OF RATS. *disclaimer*

200711 min6.8 / 10

A lighthearted, educational animated short that uses sibling banter and historical perspective-shifting to promote empathy and understanding between humans and rats.

Let's face it, rats are not the most beloved creatures on earth. However, maybe this little tale about the history of human and rat interaction will change the world's tune. At least that is the hope of Remy, the star of Ratatouille, and his reluctant brother Emile as they guide us through world history from a rat's perspective. Why can't we all just get along?
