An animated child with blonde hair jumps on different coloured planets.

Singing, TO THE MOON AND BACK! HA-HA! I JUMP ON EVERY PLANET AND EVERY STAR C'MON, LET'S GO FAR EXPLORE THE WHOLE UNIVERSE, LITTLE MALABAR.

A title reads: Little Malabar. Music by Fred Pallem. Directed by Patrick Volve.

A title reads: Planet or Star? Written by Nelly Blumenthal and Jean Duprat. Storyboard by Antoine Delebarre.

A narrator says, PLANET OR STAR?

Three gorillas hide behind a bush.

Malabar calls, YOO-HOO! YOO-HOO!

Malabar walks by, wearing a red blindfold.

Malabar asks, WHERE ARE YOU?

He has blonde hair and wears a white t-shirt with an orange sun on it.

(Giggling)

Malabar calls, YOO-HOO!

(Gorillas grunting)

Malabar calls, YOO-HOO! WHAT'S THAT I HEAR?

(Grunting)

The gorillas climb a tree.

Malabar calls, YOO-HOO! WHERE ARE YOU HIDING?

Malabar starts to walk past the tree, then stops.

Malabar says, OH!

(Grunting)

The weight of the gorillas bends the tree toward the ground.

Malabar asks, THIS WAY? AH, IS SOMEONE THERE?

Malabar walks along the tree. He touches a gorilla.

Malabar says, GOT YOU! BUT WHO ARE YOU? YOU HAVE BIG NOSTRILS, YOU'RE VERY STRONG, AND ALL FURRY! YOU ARE GORILLA!

Two gorillas tumble off the tree, causing it to spring up. Malabar and a gorilla are flung into the air. They fly into space.

Malabar shouts, WOO-HOO! WHAT'S GOING ON?

They fall into a planet.

(Atoms cheering)

Malabar says, PHEW, IT FEELS REALLY HOT HERE! WHERE ARE YOU, GORILLA? AH, BUT YOU'RE NOT GORILLA! YOU ARE LITTLE, ALL ROUND... ARE YOU AN ARMADILLO?

Malabar touches a round red shape.

The red shape says, ARE YOU KIDDING? I AM AN ATOM!

Malabar ask, AN ATOM?

(Giggling)

Malabar turns and touches the gorilla.

Malabar says, THERE YOU ARE, GORILLA! BUT WHERE ARE WE?

The atoms say, TAKE A GUESS!

An atom says, YOU'RE IN THE VERY LARGE CORE OF AN ENORMOUS BALL...

All cry, OF MATTER!

Malabar says, OH, I KNOW! WE'RE IN THE CORE OF THE SUN!

The atoms say, YOU LOSE!

(Atoms laughing and cheering)

The atoms push Malabar and the gorilla off of the planet. They land on a moon. Malabar lifts his blindfold.

Malabar says, OH, JUPITER! I THOUGHT YOU WERE THE SUN!

Jupiter says, ME, THE SUN? IT'S MUCH BIGGER THAN I AM, AND MUCH HOTTER AS WELL. IT IS A STAR!

Malabar says, A PLANET OR A STAR? LET'S PLAY AT BLIND MAN'S BLUFF IN SPACE! COME ON, LET'S CONTINUE, GORILLA!

(Giggling)

Malabar climbs on the gorilla’s back and ties a blindfold over its eyes. Malabar pulls his own blindfold back down. The gorilla leaps off the moon.

Malabar shouts, WOO-HOO! WHOA! WOO-HOO! WOO-HOO! WHOA!

(Giggling)

They land in the Sun. Atoms jump around them.

(Atoms cheering)

Malabar says, WHOA, IT'S BOILING HOT HERE! ARE WE INSIDE A CORE AGAIN? AH, YOU'RE MUCH TOO FAST. YOU'RE IMPOSSIBLE TO CATCH!

(Giggling)

The gorilla grabs Malabar and an armful of atoms shaped like red, yellow and orange balls.

Malabar says, WELL DONE, GORILLA! YOU'RE VERY SMALL, AND ROUND, AND REAL FAST. YOU ARE AGITATED ATOMS!

The atoms say, WELL DONE! AND NOW, FUSION!

Malabar lifts his blindfold.

Malabar asks, WHOA! OH! BUT WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

An atom says, THEY FUSED TOGETHER!

Another atom says, WHILE RELEASING HEAT AND LIGHT!

A fused atom says, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE ATOMS DO WHEN WE'RE IN A BOILING HOT CORE!

Atoms shout, YAY, FUSION!

Malabar says, THEY'RE LITTLE SEEDS OF LIGHT!

An atom says, YES, THAT'S US!

All say, WE ARE PHOTONS!

Malabar says, I KNOW! THIS TIME, WE REALLY ARE IN THE SUN!

Atoms shout, YEAH! YOU WIN! WOO-HOO! BRAVO!

Malabar rides on the gorillas back and they jump out of the Sun.

Malabar says, LET'S CONTINUE THE GAME! YIPPEE! WOO-HOO!

They pull the blindfolds down.

(Giggling)

They jump into a planet’s core.

Malabar says, WOW! PHEW! IT'S A LITTLE LESS HOT HERE.

Malabar grabs an atom.

Malabar says, I GOT YOU! YOU'RE LESS AGITATED, BUT YOU'RE STILL AN ATOM!

The atom says, THAT'S RIGHT! WE'RE IN A SMALLER CORE HERE AND IT'S COOLER.

Malabar asks, HUH? SO THEN, GORILLA, ARE WE INSIDE A PLANET OR A STAR?

(Grunting)

The atoms shout, YOU WIN! WOO-HOO!

The atoms push Malabar and the gorilla out of the core.

Malabar says, WELL DONE, GORILLA! WE WERE INSIDE THE CORE OF A PLANET!

Malabar and the gorilla land on the grass next to the other gorillas.

Malabar asks, BUT WHICH PLANET ARE WE ON? OH, I KNOW. WE'RE ON PLANET EARTH WITH OUR FRIENDS, THE GORILLAS!

Malabar and the gorilla take off their blindfolds.

(All chuckling)

(Music playing)

The narrator says, IN SPACE, THE STARS, SUCH AS THE SUN, ARE MUCH LARGER THAN THE PLANETS. THEIR CORES ARE SO HOT THAT THE ATOMS FOUND THERE, FUSE TOGETHER AND PRODUCE HEAT AND LIGHT.
