Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This German-Canadian co-production arrived right as The Incredibles was dominating superhero family narratives, making its underdog perspective quietly radical.
Jürgen Wolf primarily directed live-action before this; the stiff, deliberately 'uncool' animation of Norman was reportedly intentional to emphasize his ordinariness.
