Maus by Art Spieglman is a 1991 Graphic Novel talking about the plight of Vladek and Anya Spiegleman during the Holocaust. What makes it different is its depiction of different nationalities as different animals. Mice being Jews, Cats being Germans etc.
Beasts of the Southern Wild is a gorgeous low-fi fever dream brought to the silver screen by Ben Zeitlin. It follows the journey of young Hush Puppy through hurricanes, poverty, isolation -- all sad topics to be sure -- but ends on an unexpected uplifting note.
