The Tale of the Fox (French: Le Roman de Renard, Dutch: Van den vos Reynaerde, German: Reinecke Fuchs) was stop-motion animation pioneer Ladislas Starevich's first fully animated feature film.

Although the animation was finished in Paris after an 18-month period (1929–1930), there were major problems with adding a soundtrack to the film.

The film was released in France with a French language soundtrack in 1941; this is the version which is currently available on DVD.

[citation needed] In the kingdom of animals, the fox Renard is used to tricking and fooling everyone.

Finally, he orders Renard to be arrested and brought before the throne.
