About Lydia and the Mist Rider
When her older brother Thaddeus is mysteriously kidnapped by the Spellbinder, 11-year-old Lydia sets off to find him in the Misty Sea. Picked up by the crew of a flying ship, the Dolphin, Lydia becomes the apprentice of Ambrosia, a Stargazer. Ambrosia is trying to find other children who have disappeared, including her own son. Determined to solve the mystery, Lydia must learn stargazing magic and ready herself to confront the Spellbinder.
Directed by Nancy Florence Savard, Emilie Rosas, Philippe Arseneau Bussières, Lydia and the Mist Rider leans on a strong ensemble — Sophie Nélisse, Éveline Gélinas, Alexandre Bacon — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 2026.
