She was the darling of human society. Model, fashion designer, actress – was there anything our ladybug could not do?
Now she was starring in a motion picture that would hit the Parisian theaters in less than three weeks.
It was a time for celebration.
Yet Claudine chose to walk alone along the Seine.
In this sequel to Claudine: A Fairy Tale for Exceptional Grownups, we take a look at what happened just before the film opened.
What caused Claudine to question her success?
Can she find a balance between the limelight and the light within her?
Will she really be helped by an otter, a magical forest, and the wisdom of the moon?
