A lavish animation of Janacek's well-loved classic featuring Sharp Ears, the loveable, flirtatious fox.
Janacek's opera, inspired by the 1920s cartoon strip Vixen Sharpears, returns to its roots in the hands of innovative animator Geoff Dunbar, whose award-winning films include Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny, The Tale of Mr Tod and Paul McCartney's Rupert and the Frog Song.
With its new sound track recorded by Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester and singers from the European Opera Centre, the story of Sharpears unfolds a tale of love, death and rebirth which will appeal to audiences of all ages.
