The Girl Without Hands

Streaming video - 2016

In hard times, a miller sells his daughter to the Devil. Protected by her purity, she escapes from the Devil who, in revenge, deprives her of her hands. So begins her long journey towards the light… but in spite of her resilience and the new protection of a handsome prince’s estate, the Devil devises a plan of his own. THE GIRL WITHOUT HANDS is the audacious feature debut from acclaimed short filmmaker Sébastien Laudenbach, whose beautiful and dreamlike take on the Brothers Grimm story has created an adult fairytale destined to become a classic. Official Selection at the **Cannes Film Festival**. Nominated for Best Animated Feature at the **César Awards**. *"A welcome reminder that animation doesn't have to be synonymous wit...h realistically rendered CG, but can be a means of artistic expression as uniquely personal as a signature." - Charles Solomon, **The Los Angeles Times***
