Hidden Animation ~ La Jeune fille sans mains, Sébastien Laudenbach (2016)
La Jeune fille sans mains is loosely based on the brothers Grimm’s tale in which a poor miller is tempted by the devil and agrees to sell his daughter to him in exchange for gold. In her attempt to escape, her father manages to cut off her hands and give them to the devil. The story is then centered around the daughter and her survival despite her infirmity.
The movie has been praised for its visual rendition and unique art style emphasized by the use of clean sketch lines and vibrant colours. The movie was awarded at the Annecy festival.
