In a snowy forest, a woodcutter and his wife live in poverty and misery, still grieving for the loss of their child. Close to their home, trains rumble through the frozen landscape, carrying their human cargo to a concentration camp. All the local woodcutters know that there lies the fate of those they call ‘Heartless’, said to be damned for their greed. One day, the woodcutter’s wife hears a baby’s cry in the snow by the train tracks and decides to adopt her. The woodcutter is angry at first, refusing to acknowledge the baby as an innocent. But slowly, his own heart melts, and he discovers that he’ll do anything to protect her. This French-language animation is a gentle and accessible fable that nevertheless does not shy away from the horrors of the Holocaust.
