About The Snow Queen
Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale is told here as a digital theater piece. The visual point of departure is fashioned by découpages created by Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, who is also the narrator. The découpages serve to establish the mood around the story of the children, Kaj and Gerda. They consist of a countless number of clippings, which are subsequently subjected to the processes of computer animation and mixed with graphics, live actors and music into an unique fairy tale universe.
Directed by Jacob Jørgensen, Kristof Kuncewicz, The Snow Queen leans on a strong ensemble — Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, Ronja Mannov Olesen, Christian Elmelund — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about fantasy titles of 2000.
