As Aventuras De Azur E Asmar

Many critics praise the film as an anti-racist fable for children. That is true, but reductive. Ocelot is doing something stranger: he is critiquing the masculine structure of the quest itself. Both Azur and Asmar want to "win" the Fairy—to capture her as a trophy, a validation of their individual worth. The Fairy, however, is not a damsel.
