The pioneering fossil collector’s youth is brought to life in this charming Swiss animation.

In 1811, Mary Anning loves searching for fossils on the Dorset coast, a passion given to her by her father. But one day, he disappears, leaving behind a strange drawing and a struggling family. Determined to help, Mary hatches a plan that will lead to new friendships, big adventures and the discovery of palaeontology as we know it. A punky, high-spirited film perfect for budding scientists of all ages. (Mary Anning is rated PG – tickets for under 15s are £6. The film is in French with English subtitles)

"Mary Anning is a sensitive and poetic film which imposes itself without shouting and screaming, and that’s undoubtedly a wonderful thing." — Giorgia Del Don, Cineuropa
