Cozette (1977)

Arnolds Burovs animanted this short about Cosette, one of the carachter of Victor Hugo's Les Miserables. In the nove, she's the daughter of Fantine, she is raised by Jean Valjean after her mother dies. She falls in love with Marius Pontmercy, and marries him at the end of the novel. For the first few years she is raised, she is used as a worker and beaten by the Thénardiers.



This stop motion is so elegant and beautiful, but personally I prefer the original version of Cosette.
