The Red Turtle is an upcoming French-Japanese animated film directed by Michaël Dudok de Wit. It tells the story of a man who tries to escape from a desert island and battles a giant turtle. The film is without dialogue. It is the director's first feature film.

The film was produced by Why Not Productions and Wild Bunch in association with Studio Ghibli. According to Vincent Maraval, head of Wild Bunch, he visited Studio Ghibli in Japan in 2008 and met with Hayao Miyazaki. Miyazaki showed him the short film Father and Daughter and asked him to find its director, Michaël Dudok de Wit, with the prospect of co-producing a feature film. Wild Bunch approached Dudok de Wit in London and convinced him to take on the project. The screenplay was written by Dudok de Wit and Pascale Ferran.

I've never even heard of this. Wow.

 

[ChubbyHuggs]

I bet the score will be amazing with no dialogue.

Looks beautiful already.

I know I'm five days late, but I'm bumping this because I'm super excited for this movie, and I feel like it needs more views. A three minute clip received a standing ovation at Annecy. It's entirely hand drawn, exept for the turtle, which is CGI.

Is the clip available to view anywhere yet?

Not that I know of. I look up this movie like every week, so I'll bump, if and when it is.

Edit: Not sure if this is worth a bump, so I'll leave this as an edit. Film releases in Japan September 2016 and will be destributed by TOHO.

Yes, more beautiful 2D animation please. Thanks for the heads up, OP. Hopefully a release in other countries isn't too far off.

I figured the guy was CGI, those animations in the gifs are incredible.
