Extra Info

Flat broke after the latest tax collection, Rebekah has only one option left: marry off one of her daughters to Prince Charming in order to be able to financially breathe again. Her stepdaughter Cinderella is useless apart for scrubbing floors, so the cruel matriarch sets her sights on Elvira. Even if it means assaulting her face with extreme violence to make her presentable… Emilie Blichfeldt gives the famous fairy tale of the Brothers Grimm a radical facelift, linking it closer to Cronenbergian body-horror and the recent THE SUBSTANCE than to Walt Disney. People at Sundance even vomited during the screening, but of course we have stomachs of steel at the BIFFF. We hope so anyway, for the sake of our seats…
