About the film:

Puss has burned through eight of his nine lives, though he lost count along the way. Getting those lives back will send Puss in Boots into the Black Forest to find the mythical Wishing Star on his grandest quest yet.

“The Last Wish is a rare animation marvel that astonishes with its visual prowess while deftly delivering mature lessons to a young audience”

-Prabhjot Bains, Tilt Magazaine

With only one life left, Puss will have to humble himself and ask for help from his former partner and nemesis: Kitty Softpaws. In their journey they are joined by a chatty and cheerful mutt named Perro. Together, our trio of heroes will need to stay one step ahead of fairy tale realm’s craftiest crooks including Goldilocks Locks and the Three Bears.
