Your father becomes a monster. The car becomes your only escape. Black charcoal bleeds across the screen while a bass guitar pulls everything deeper into nightmare, and suddenly you're not watching a fairy tale retold, you're watching one happen in real time, raw enough to leave marks. This film moves like Grimm always should have, when the woods were actually dangerous and nothing was promised to end well. The animation doesn't illustrate the horror. It is the horror.
A brother and sister escape their home after their own father almost devours them. They take his car and drive off, ending up in the wilderness. Out there they come across a Giant and a Witch. The film is drawn in black and white charcoal and scored with the sound of a bass guitar. It blends the look and feel of Japanese manga with the spirit of a Brothers Grimm fairy tale, producing a fantasy horror story built on a dark folkloric premise.
