English Summary:
My Family and Other Animals is a 2005 television film written by Simon Nye and directed by Sheree Folkson. The film is based on the autobiographical book of the same title written by Gerald Durrell, in which he describes a series of anecdotes relating to his family's stay on Corfu from 1935–39, when he was aged 10–14.
My Family and Other Animals tells the story of the Durrell family, Lawrence Durrell, Leslie Durrell, Margaret Durrell and Gerald Durrell, as well as their mother Louisa Durrell, as they spend five years (1935–1939) on the Greek island of Corfu. The family reside in a series of villas, and spend their time indulging in their varying interests. Gerald develops his passion for wildlife, his mother spends her time cooking and worrying about everyone else; Larry writes and annoys the entire family with high-brow guests and unhelpful suggestions; Leslie develops his passion for ballistics and sailing, whilst Margo sunbathes and enchants the local young men.
Hungarian Summary:
Az esős Angliában élő Durrell család minden vágya egy kis napsütés, így Korfu szigetét választják új lakhelyüknek. A külön és excentrikus család élén a konyhaművész Mrs. Durrell áll, akinek szeszélyeit nem mindig könnyű elviselni. Ám gyermekei sem tekinthetők átlagosnak: a legidősebb fiú, Larry avantgarde írónak készül, a második fiú, Leslie fegyvermániás, az egyetlen lány, Margo pedig szédületes sebességgel cserélgeti a hódolóit. A kalandok középpontjában mégis a 12 éves Gerald áll, akinek figyelmét a tanulás helyett az élővilág csodái kötik le. Szünet nélkül tanulmányozza a legfurcsább élőlényeket... Köztük a saját családját.
