A film by Lena Anderson and Christina Bjork
Running time: 30 minutes

Right from the pages of the bestselling book, the charming tale of a little girl's love affair with the paintings of Claude Monet is now brought to life in full animation.

Join Linnea and her friend Mr. Bloom as they set off to Paris, and then to Monet's garden in Giverny. Watch as they discover the places that inspired their favorite paintings, and marvel as the paintings and the garden "come to life" in live action.

Linnea in Monet's Garden is a delightful blend of imagination and education that teaches children about the art and life of one of the most important painters of the 20th century, while entertaining them with the mystery and beauty of art and nature.
