reviews

"The filmmakers proved a good deal of courage when they wanted to create the film to use Native American creation stories. And let’s be clear from the outset: with success. Four Souls of Coyote nails the viewer to their seat with elemental power. Finally a Hungarian film that is authentic from beginning to end."

"A fascinating and seductive journey into Native American cosmogony that more than echoes the great contemporary ecological concerns, the film is a total success accessible to all audiences, a mystical ode to nature that rightly reminds us that "man does not weave the web of life. He is only a strand of it."

"Áron Gauder Brings Native American Myths to Life in a Beautiful Eco Tale"

”I am amazed with what I have seen, Stepping into the wonders of the tribal universe with the blending of the highest form of artistic storytelling, the Four Souls of Coyote is a gift to the wonders of humanity and the mystery of tribal people.”

"Annecy award-winning director Áron Gauder’s animated feature retells the making of the universe, touching on issues of sustainability and shared responsibility"

"The film’s primary aim is to offer a cinematic escape for audiences, presenting a magical world inspired by Native American folklore that takes us back to the wonders of life."

The film warns that man is a fallible creature who has responsibility for the other creatures too. We cannot consume limitlessly; we must keep our desires in check because if we do not, then the created world will perish. The societal message and how the film makes the viewer aware of it are first class.

"By presenting the magical world of Native American folklore, the film provides keys to understanding the present."

"Cartoon Movie will also be presenting Sneak Preview sessions on warmly anticipated title Four Souls of Coyote from Áron Gauder...."

"A sneak preview, this Cinemon Studio-produced feature is an alternative and modern take on a creation myth in a world where humans are not at the top of the food chain and don’t run things in their world, but instead are more equally integrated into the natural hierarchy."

"Four Souls of Coyote is an upcoming 2D animation feature film that deals with the epic Native American creation myth, told with a very impressive visual style."
