Acid Rain (1986)

Based on Sean O'Huigan's poem Acid Rain, this animated film painted in soft pastels unveils the magical thinking of a carefree little girl. Viewers will delight in the gross comic detail of her fantastic imaginings. While far from a factual treatment of acid rain, the film can inspire activities in art, children's literature studies and film classes while serving as a whimsical introduction to a serious problem.
