A Princess’ Guide to Fairytale Love

What’s a princess to do these days? There is no end of suitors, but one can wait a long time till the right man comes along. Princess Lucette has a plan, and an ally in her dragon, Joe, who takes his job very seriously.  However, we all know what happens when we get what we want.  Written and directed by a group of students at Gobelins, this entertaining short film gives us a fresh take on the genre while gleefully subverting it (and one or two others into the bargain).

A great job done all round – and let’s hope that all the young cretaives involved in this project go on to bigger and better things.  APGtFL (yeah, lazy, I know) was written and directed by Violette Avouac, Ramya Hegde, Tshegofatso Tracy Pitseng, Kelvin Shani, Polina Saratova, and Ashil Shaji. The music was composed by Nelson Lam, with sound design by Laurent Jimenez, who also handled the mix.
