My friend looks for a movie about a villain inside water bucket carried by a dog or a wolf. He watched it around 2013-2015 maybe? He doesn't have much memory of it but he watched it on an Arabic kids channel (so it was dubbed). All he can remembers from this cartoon movie is that this movie is set in the world of animals. The humans of that world are some type of bear or koala or maybe pandas? They can speak like humans can etc but they don't understand the speech of other animals (bc they're supposed to be animals). The elder from their community is missing or maybe dead, the bears dont know where he is. There is a painting of him too. The main villain of this story is a witch who put a curse on the other animals so their speech is incomprehensible and she also put a curse on the elder so that he is stuck inside a painting. The witch doesnt have a body (she lost it bc of a curse?) but she is actually the form of water and is carried around in a water bucket by a dog. She resides in an abandoned cave. the bears set out on a journey to find the witch and defeat her. In the end the curse is broken and the people inside the painting are free and the other animals can now talk. I also remember that the dog abandons the witch in the end and he kicks over the bucket by which the water spills.
He remembered something else from this movie. The creatures broke the curse by placing their hands (or their paws) on handmarks.
