In directors Roger Allers and Don Hahn's 7-minute animated short The Little Matchgirl, an impoverished young girl lights matches to generate warmth, and experiences joy and peace from the images that she spots in the flames. The filmmakers adapted the work from the story of the same name by Hans Christian Andersen.
