The OG sleeping beauty — Czech style, with extra folk weirdness and zero Disney sparkle.
A well-known fairy tale about a princess who slept for a hundred long years. It is hardly possible to remember the names and fates of all fairy-tale princesses. But when you say Princess Rose, there is no doubt that everyone immediately knows what happened to her. Is it because of that sweet, ordinary name, or because her story is so unusual and interesting?

Intricate puppet work that puts CGI to shame.

Folk costumes so detailed you can feel the embroidery.

Miloš Bobek
