"The Wedding Veil of the Proud Princess" is a animated short by Anna-Ester Volozh

More from the director:

"In "The Wedding Veil of the Proud Princess," I aimed to subvert traditional fairy tale conventions, delving into themes of self-determination and mortality. Drawing from the ethereal and darkly poetic tone of L.M.Montgomery’s story, I sought to create a cinematic experience that challenges perceptions and invites introspection.

Throughout the narrative, there exists a deliberate dissonance between the story as told by the narrator - a cautionary tale of pride and downfall - and the visual representation of the Princess's perspective. While the world perceives her as haughty and self-absorbed, we glimpse beneath the surface to uncover her longing for freedom and authenticity.

Ultimately, this film explores the challenges faced by women who dare to seek autonomy and freedom. In her final act, the Princess transcends the confines of a world that seeks to exploit her, facing consequences of her own choices with her head held high."
