Miss Minoes

directed by Vincent Bal
starring Carice Van Houten, Theo Maassen, Sarah Bannier, Pierre Bokma

This utterly charming classic family film tells the tale of Miss Minoes, a cat who is transformed into a young woman (Carice van Houten) and befriends Tibbe (Theo Maassen), a shy bumbling cub reporter for the local newspaper.

Miss Minoes, still recognized as a cat by the neighborhood felines despite her new appearance, organizes them into a news-gathering service and helps Tibbe become a star reporter. He soon turns investigative and discovers that the popular chairman of the “Club For Friends of Animals” and boss of a nearby factory has evil plans…
