The Temple is a Canadian animated short film, directed by Alain Fournier and released in 2022. Based on the H. P. Lovecraft short story "The Temple", the film centres on the crew of a German U-boat, who witness strange phenomena before an explosion in the engine room, and descend into madness as the vessel sinks to the bottom of the ocean.
The film premiered in October 2022 at the Sitges Film Festival. It had its Canadian premiere later the same month at the 2022 Abitibi-Témiscamingue International Film Festival, where it was the winner of the Prix Crave for best short film by a director from Quebec.
The film received a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Animated Short at the 12th Canadian Screen Awards in 2024.
