You’ve never seen anything like Lotte From Gadgetville before! The characters are delightful, and a few are on the odd side, making sure this adventure will be a memorable one. Lotte is a happy little girl puppy and Lotte’s dad, Oskar, is an inventor. The annual inventors’ competition is coming up and he’s working on his project. In one funny scene when Uncle Vinnie introduces his machine that makes bricks into bread, the announcer states he hopes the machine doesn’t blow up as it did “last year!”

Lotte and her friend Leo see lots of interesting things. Lotte’s dad shows up to the new inventors’ competition with his new invention, a washing machine that washes clothes, irons them, and folds them too! One inventor is exposed as a cheater when a lady is discovered inside his carrot-cutting machine cutting up the carrots with her knife! Another intriguing character is Sumusu who teaches local residents how they can apply judo in their lives. The film climaxes with Gadgetville facing Japan at a judo competition.

The movie deals with learning new ideas, and being fair and kind and exploring one’s creative abilities. Due to the overall wholesomeness of this creative and colorful animated film, we are pleased to award it our Dove-Approved Seal for All Ages.
