My Family and Other Animals is a 2005 television film written by Simon Nye and directed by Sheree Folkson.[1] The film is based on the 1956 autobiographical book of the same title written by Gerald Durrell, in which he describes a series of anecdotes relating to his family's stay on Corfu from 1935–1939, when he was aged 10–14.
