Lapitch the Little Shoemaker is an animated film, originally released in Croatian theatres in 1997, and on video in 2000 by Sony Wonder in the United States. This is probably director Milan Blažeković's best-known film in the Western world.

It was shown on Disney Channel in North America early in 2000.
