The tandem duo Fine and Snowden, who won an Oscar with Bob’s Birthday in 1993, are now back in great shape. This time it’s about five animals that meet for regular group therapy sessions to discuss their inner anxiety. The comedy arises when it turns out the animals’ psyche does not work at all like a human’s. Or maybe we’re simply the ones who don’t understand? (Göteborg Film Festival)

Just like humans, animals can experience both joys and sorrows, which they need to deal with in some way, so that they don't go crazy. Each character from the animal kingdom had their own charm and you could identify with them figuratively speaking. Animal Behaviour definitely impresses at first glance with its likeable animation, but as far as the story is concerned, I found it rather simple and without any deeper point, which is a pity in this case, because the idea itself was good.
