Description du film :
»We were meant to go to school together.« – »Giraffes don’t need school. They know all they need to know.«
Based on one of Holland’s most beloved nursery rhymes, a funny, fanciful story unfolds about the value of an unusual friendship and the fundamental changes that threaten it. Patterson’s best buddy has big, dark eyes, a super long neck and soft, lightly speckled fur. His name is Raf, he was born on the same day as Patterson and, yes, he’s a talking giraffe. The two friends are about to turn four, which means their first day of school together is right around the corner. At least that’s what Patterson has promised. Alas, the school has a strict ‘no animals allowed’ policy. Bright balloons pop, red rubber boots remain unworn and the evening flashlight signaling ritual goes unanswered.
