My Favorite Film
My favorite film is Zootopia, an animated movie directed by Byron Howard. The main characters are Judy, a rabbit police officer, and Nick, a fox. In the film, Judy tries to solve a mysterious case in Zootopia, a city where animals live together. With Nick’s help, she overcomes many difficulties and finds the truth. I love this film because it’s full of fun and teaches me that we should never give up, no matter how hard things seem. Also, the beautiful scenes and exciting story always attract me.
