Tragic Story with Happy Ending (French:Histoire tragique avec fin heureuse) is a 2005 animated short by Regina Pessoa. To make the 7 minute 43 second film, Pessoa's drawings were transferred to glossy paper, brushed with india ink, scratched with a blade to give the effect of an engraving, then photographed. National Film Board of Canada film composer Normand Roger supplied the score for the film.
The film was the second in a trilogy of animated shorts by Pessoa about childhood, between A Noite (1999) and Kali the Little Vampire.

Il y a des gens qui sont différents, malgré eux. Tout ce qu'ils souhaitent c'est ressembler aux autres, se mélanger délicieusement à la foule... Quelques uns passent toute leur vie en essayant d'y arriver, niant ou essayant de cacher leur différence. D'autres l'assument et ainsi s'élèvent, obtenant la place rêvée auprès des autres ... dans leur cœur.
