What is Flora & Ulysses About?
The semi-animated movie is based on a best-selling children’s novel that circles around a lonely girl named Flora. She saves and brings home a squirrel one day only to find out that her new furry buddy has superpowers. Flora, who loves comic books and tales of superheroes, is absolutely thrilled by this discovery. Meanwhile, Ulysses the squirrel has problems of his own which take the shape of an overzealous animal control officer, Miller. As Flora and Ulysses attempt to escape Miller, they run into several obstacles.
They must stick close to one another, and Flora must use her wits to save Ulysses from the clutches of Animal Control. Not only is the film a joyful watch for kids, but it also sways away from the stereotypical thinking that puts kids in the position of matchmaking for their parents. Flora does not take well to her parents’ separation, as seen initially, but the plot does not force her to act on the separation either, providing yet another reason to watch the movie.
