Six exotic fables, each unfold in a unique locale, from Tibet, to medieval Europe, an Aztec kingdom, the African plains, and even the Land of the Dead.

Our read · Tales of the Night (2011) reads as a cosy, kinetic, inventive animation · fantasy · anthology entry — gentle in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, tender in temperature, redemptive in outlook, with a strong directorial signature. Hand-scored on twelve axes of taste — mood, pacing, weirdness, hope, stakes, humour, reality, density, warmth, auteur, intensity, and era — with a derived palette drawn from its dominant cinematography.
