England, 19th century. 12-year-old Mary is passionate about the fossils that she collects and sells with her father. When he accidentally dies near the fossil cliffs, Mary, her brother and her mother struggle to make the payments for the family house, meaning they will probably have to leave the seaside that Maëlys loves so much. But her father left a mysterious message: what was it that he saw on the cliffs before he died? With some help from her friends, Mary will fight to save her home and continue to do what she loves, searching for fossils, in the midst of a society where girls should not ​“behave like men”. Mary doesn’t know it yet, but she’s going to go down in history…

Early in the morning in the square of a small Swiss village, preparations are underway for a big celebration. Volunteers are busy getting everything ready... and the first musicians are arriving.

Winter is approaching, and the last day of the red-yellow-brown glow of autumn is a good time for the animals in the forest to organize a very special race. Ardently they construct buggies from discarded materials, and as the weather turns frosty, the race is on for the hare, fox, hedgehog, bear, and others. With mutual caring, the forest animals ride toward the finish line and their wintering grounds.

Autumn has settled in on the banks by the stream. Small animals are busying themselves in preparation for the long winter ahead.

A small family of shrews, made up of a grandmother, a mother and her three children, lives on the edge of a stream. One day, heavy rains fell, breaking the old dam upstream. Fortunately, the family members are all safe, but their house is totally destroyed. Forced into exile, the shrews go, on the advice of an old man, to the hill of pebbles.
