Babička červené Karkulky slaví narozeniny! | Little Red Riding Hood’s Grandma is Celebrating her Birthday Today
author: Vít Peřina
directed by Michaela Homolová
An unconventional adaptation of a traditional fairy tale
The wolves are returning to Bohemia and a young wolf boy has a big task ahead of him! A young hunter must pass an exam. And Little Red Riding Hood has to go to her grandmother again…The three initiatory journeys of the three different heroes intersect in a crazy finale in the middle of the forest – in a cottage where Little Red Riding Hood’s grandmother is celebrating a significant anniversary.
