The Little Prince
bereavement theme
theme
There is an overarching theme of learning acceptance of loss and bereavement, as characters say sad farewells but find that they can still see each other if they 'look with their hearts'. The deaths of several characters are alluded to but not depicted on screen. Although the theme is sensitively handled, younger viewers may still find it upsetting.
additional issues
A character allows himself to be bitten by a snake in order to leave his body behind and embark on a journey.
