Plots(1)

Traditional fairy-tale about three wishes gains burlesque momentum in the version by a trio of filmmakers, Dominique Abel, Fiona Gordon and Bruno Romy. Their previous films, Iceberg (2005) and Rumba (2008) were seen in Czech cinemas. Dom works as a receptionist in a hotel where Fiona checks in one evening. However, she comes barefoot, with no luggage, and she claims to be a fairy granting three wishes. After two of Dom's wishes are fulfilled, Fiona disappears. Having fallen in love with her, Dom sets out to find her. The directors and main protagonists utilize their theater roots, their experience with slapstick comedy, and films by Buster Keaton or Jacques Tati. The simplicity of the magical comedy is truly enchanting. (Febiofest)
