Pocahontas

Set in Colonial America, Pocahontas has become a story of historical value known and loved internationally, among children of all ages. The film tells the story of the first English settlers in Virginia and the Native Americans who lived there. It highlights the very different values of the two civilisations and particularly their attitude and respect for the land. It's a culture shock story and, on a personal level, a love story

Directed by Ryszard Słapczyński, Pocahontas leans on a strong ensemble — Nickolas Grace, Lee Perry, Peter McAllum — 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 1995.
