On the Other Side of the Woods

Surrealist film for children

A magnificent adaptation of the world's most famous story.

Synopsis

Story inspired by the famous French folk tale Little Red Riding Hood.

Film commentary: On the Other Side of the Woods

"Little Red Riding Hood" has had many versions throughout history, but we are always curious to discover new adaptations. With Charles Perrault, the story ends with the victory of the wolf, with the Grimm brothers, the little girl and her grandmother get out safely. Discover the end of this new and very beautiful version!

The characters in this short film, clay and wooden puppets animated in stop-motion (volume animation) and the use of natural light coming from the windows of the workshop itself serving as a set for the film, create a strange atmosphere reminiscent of surrealism.
