La Reine des neiges
At the mention of the title of this famous tale that has inspired so many illustrators and animation studios, one immediately visualizes a small Danish town on Christmas Eve, snow gently falling, and the famous Queen's sleigh taking little Kay to her palace—in a more or less weighty classicism. By transposing the action to the 20th century, Anton Lomaev renews our perspective and highlights the universality of this unique story that blends naturalism and the supernatural, folklore and modernity, individual freedom and religious references. The sleigh becomes a long automobile driven by a chauffeur with an SS helmet, dreams are Crusaders in armor, and the robber girl appears for what she is: a rebellious feminist!
