Manivald is an animated short film, directed by Chintis Lundgren and released in 2017.[1] The film centres on Manivald (Trevor Boris), an underachieving fox in his early 30s who still lives with his mother (France Castel), but finds their relationship endangered when they simultaneously fall in love with Toomas (Drasko Ivezic), the handsome wolf repairman who arrives to fix their washing machine.

The film, adapted from Lundgren's prior webcomic Manivald and the Absinthe Rabbits, is a potential pilot for an animated series, in which Manivald will move out of his mother's house and take up residence at The Hedgehog's Closet, a gay bar run by a cross-dressing hedgehog.[1] The series will also incorporate characters from Lundgren's prior animated short film Life with Herman H. Rott.[1]

The film was a Canadian Screen Award nominee for Best Animated Short Film at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards.[2]
