What happens

Oggy and the Cockroaches: The Movie (French: Oggy et les Cafards: Le Film) is a 2013 French animated anthology comedy film directed and written by Olivier Jean-Marie, that premiered in France on August 7, 2013. The film is based on the Tex Avery-inspired television series of the same name, created by Jean-Yves Raimbaud. The film revolves around the adventures of Oggy, a light blue cat who dreams of a perfect existence, but has to deal with three trouble-making cockroaches who make his life miserable throughout four timelines, composed of self-contained stories in a chronological order. These stories also feature Jack, Bob and Olivia. The basis of the movie also became the theme of the fifth season of Oggy and the Cockroaches (premiering four years later in 2017), which also took place in a variety of countries throughout history, like Ancient Egypt and China, within three, separately self-contained episodes.
