“Story of the Sun” is the first stop-motion animation in the world made entirely from birch bark. It shares the tale of how the first humans discovered fire, changing the world forever. It’s especially meaningful that this film is made from birch bark—a material used for starting fires since the Neanderthal era.

“Story of the Sun” is a movie for both children and adults. It’s filled with humor, valuable lessons, and emotionally touching moments.
