The Last Request (2006)

An unlikely friendship changes the hearts of men, and helps a young boy come into his own.

Her people — the Fey — are being hunted down, and so Nimue will do whatever it takes to save them.

A group of criminal animals tries their best to reform themselves into good citizens to avoid serving time in prison.
