Just as the film version of ‘Le Chat du Rabbin’, written and directed by Joann Sfar, gets ready for its big-screen release, this book brings together some of the most beautiful illustrations from the preparation artwork. The gorgeous scenery and colours from one of the greatest comic artists of the moment show us how the design process for an animated film really works. The book also includes a long interview with Sfar which really illuminates the historical context in which the story takes place: colonisation, Jews, Arabs, France and the Maghreb. A complete guide to both the film and the book versions of ‘Le Chat du Rabbin’.
