Nutcracker twenty20

View fullsize

The Nutcracker is a Christmas tale from 1816 written by E.T.A. Hoffmann. We will try to create a modern nutcracker, to see if the old story was as relevant in 2020 as in 1816. We would create a modern adventure with strong references to the classic, and with a modern styling, which is found in ordinary retail stores - we wanted to show that with ordinary fashion we can create a unique fairytale, and everyone can be a part of a fairytale it is just a state of mind. We have created our own visual interpretation of the fairytale in a fairytale universe that moves between fantasy and reality. In the film, you meet Marie, the nutcracker and the mouse king who are shown in fragments from the whole Hoffmann story
