After being shown at a number of film festivals throughout the year, Disney is bringing out a brand new short for the holiday season called “Le Pupille”.

From writer and director, Alice Rohrwacher, and Academy Award winning producer, Alfonso Cuarón, “Le Pupille” is a tale of innocence, greed and fantasy. This live action short is about desires, pure and selfish, about freedom and devotion, and about the anarchy that is capable of flowering in the minds of girls within the confines of a strict religious boarding school at Christmas.


When Will “Le Pupille” Be Released On Disney+?

“Le Pupille” will be released on Disney+ around the world on Friday 16th December 2022.
