Once upon a time there was oil
2010, French. Directed by Vincent Paronnaud.
In the garage of a quiet house, two children rummage through the shelves and accidentally knock over a can of oil. A drop falls and transforms into Goutix, the official mascot of Méroll, frying and motor oils. Goutix will take the kids on a wonderful and informative journey to the Méroll factory in question. You too, at the table or in the garage, ask for the best: Méroll oil!
