Wow, thanks for this. Just finished watching it and it is amazing. It was refreshing to watch something so new and original. It was like being back in the theatre again. So you know what this is, it is a story being told to children who are waiting out an air raid during the world war 2 in the basement of their orphanage by their guardian. The story she tells, of light and darkness, and the colourful iris warriors they create, is acted out in a ballet of spectacular costumes and dance. I usually watch action, horror, comedy and mystery films, so this is so different. This would have been spectacular on a theatre stage. |
I second VortexWalker, Simply outstanding. What an amazing way to explain "good and bad", what "light and darkness" is to children. How poetically explained, not only to children but to the grownups too. These somewhat complex concepts are explained in the story and spectacular dance!! Yeah, WOW!! |
