Website For Anders Morgenthaler's Princess Now Online!

When I was interviewed by Cool Shite on the Tube a few weeks back they asked if I had any hot tips for films to watch out for in the coming year. My instant response? Anders Morgenthaler's Princess. It's an animated feature out of Denmark, but it's a long way from anything you'd find playing to the kiddy crowd. Princess is the story of August, a missionary priest, who discovers that his sister is a porn star after she dies from years of drug abuse. August takes custody of his dead sister's five year old daughter Mia, and with Mia in tow goes on a bloody, violent rampage to destroy any evidence of his sister ever having been involved in porn.

The website went online today and it's gorgeous. The full trailer hasn't appeared yet, but there is a brief intro teaser, character sketches, video storyboards that gradually morph into completed animation, concept art and loads of other great stuff. Princess is already being widely touted to premiere at this years Cannes festival and this just screams cult classic to me. Go check it out.
