Isabelle au bois dormant

Claude Cloutier
2007 | 9 min
Animation dessinée à l'encre de Chine, mettant en scène un conte de Perrault dans l'univers disjoncté et ludique de Claude Cloutier. Le film raconte l'histoire d'une princesse victime d'une violente crise de narcolepsie et clouée au lit. Le roi mobilise ses sujets pour réveiller la Belle, et tous répondent à l'appel. Mais suffit-il vraiment d'un baiser pour réveiller une princesse?
