Synopsis

Quenottes (Pearlies) is the story of a mouse, but –beware– it’s not any mouse. It’s THE little mouse from our childhood, known as the tooth fairy in some countries. The one who probably brought you your first coins in exchange for a tooth hidden under your pillow.

Like the tooth fairy, the little mouse is a benevolent and generous character… Or is it? What if it was in fact a monomaniac psychopath, obsessing about its collection of dental trophies? In its mind, a lost tooth is unacceptable, it must be replaced. A father and his son will bear the consequences of this obsession...
