The first is a moving story of Dunkirk. A beautiful tale of a hunchbacked artist, a girl, a wounded bird and a courageous act at Dunkirk. The second is a delightful classic about a boy and his special donkey named Violetta. Violetta falls ill and the boy is permitted by the Pope to take his donkey into the church where the bones of St. Francis are interred.
