About Big Ear
An alien falls down from the sky in front of a wolf cub. His big ear allows him to listen to everything that happens in the universe. Yet somehow he fails to hear forest creatures calling for help.
Directed by Yuriy Butyrin, Big Ear leans on a strong ensemble — Aleksandr Pozharov, Aleksandr Ilin, Zoya Pylnova — 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 1989.
