Tricks of the Fox

About This Movie

Tricks of the Fox is this intriguing little animated piece from 2010, though the director's name seems to be lost to time. The story dives into a whimsical fairy tale about how foxes ended up small and red, and there's something charmingly quirky about that premise. The animation itself has a hand-drawn feel, which gives it a certain warmth and nostalgia, even if the pacing can be a bit uneven at times. The character designs are playful, with expressive movements that keep the atmosphere light and engaging. It touches on themes of transformation and nature, but in a gentle, almost childlike way. It’s definitely distinctive in its approach, and while it might not be everyone’s cup of tea, it has a unique vibe that makes it worth exploring.
