Pipì, Pupù and Rosmarina, flanked by new and funny characters, travel through the world of opera to tell children about its repertoire. Three short animated films in which the three little friends entertain the audience by developing their vision of the story and singing the famous arias of three classical music masterpieces: "Don Quichotte" by Jules Massenet, "Lo schiaccianoci" by Pëtr Il'ič Čajkovskij and "L'italiana in Algeri" by Gioachino Rossini.

If Bugs Bunny were to direct his signature inquiry--"What's up, doc?"--toward the modern-day Warner Bros. creative team, he wouldn't be far off. For 1001 Rabbit Tales, they've doctored up a batch of classic cartoons featuring the carrot muncher and his bumbling comrades and bundled them, near seamlessly, into a feature-length film. Here's the premise: Bugs and Daffy, both book salesmen, are competing to sell the most copies of a kids' book. Instead of burrowing a beeline to his sales territory (he should have made a left at Albuquerque), Bugs ends up in the castle of Yosemite Sam, here a harem-leading honcho. Sam's pain-in-the-spurs son, Prince Abalaba, needs somebody to read him stories; Bugs, who'd sooner take the job than suffer the alternative, that involving being boiled in oil, signs on.
