The Painting (French: Le Tableau) is a 2011 French animated film directed by Jean-François Laguionie.[1][2]

Plot

For mysterious reasons, a painter has left a work incomplete, causing conflict between the Toupins (Allduns), who are entirely painted, the Pafinis (Halfies), who lack a few colors and the Reufs (Sketchies), who are only sketches. Toupins occupy the chateau, Pafinis are out in the gardens and Reufs are treated as outcasts and hunted by the Toupins. Three friends, one of each class, embark on a quest to find the artist so that he can finish the piece and hopefully unite the people.
