Les Triplettes de Belleville is a 2003 animated feature film written and directed by Sylvain Chomet. It was released as The Triplets of Belleville in North America, and as Belleville Rendez-vous in the UK. The film features the voices of Michèle Caucheteux, Jean-Claude Donda, Michel Robin, and Monica Viegas; although there is some dialogue, the majority of the film story is told through song and pantomime. The film was highly praised by audiences and critics for its unique (and somewhat retro) style of animation. It was an international co-production between companies in France, Belgium and Canada.
It was nominated for two Academy Awards for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song (Benoît Charest and Sylvain Chomet for the song "Belleville Rendez-Vous", sung by artist Matthieu Chédid in the original version). It has won the César of the Best Film Music. As a co-production with Canada it also won the Genie Award for Best Motion Picture.
