Ernest and Celestine: A Trip to Gibberitia (trailer, pronounced “Gibberish-ia”) is an 80-minute 2D animated children’s film from 2022, a sequel to a 2012 film previously reviewed on Flayrah. They’re part of a larger franchise based on a book series, that later got a TV series and a couple of specials.
Originally produced in France, it’s been dubbed into English by GKids, however this new film has a completely different set of directors and writers. The producers and studios remained largely the same. In French the title was Ernest et Célestine: Le voyage en Charabie, based on the French word “charabia” that means gibberish or gobbledygook.
You can watch this film without having seen the first one! Ernest is a grumpy, kind-hearted musician (a bear), who adoped Celestine (a young mouse), despite bears and mice not typically getting along. The story begins with Ernest waking from his long winter sleep, when Celestine accidentally breaks his prized violin. Trying to make things right, she embarks on a journey to Ernest’s hometown to get it repaired. In panic, Ernest chases after her, and they arrive in Gibberitia together.
