Four magical short films by Giulio Gianini and Emanuele Luzzati with live music by Manuel João Vieira.
In these four short films by Giulio Gianini and Emanuele Luzzati, made between 1979 and 1981, we are transported to a colourful world where the magic of fairy tales and marvellous adventures intertwine.
The Golden Balloon (1981, Switzerland, Animation, Dubbed)
For her birthday, the king’s daughter receives a golden balloon with the power to protect her. However, she must be very careful because losing this toy could lead to the disappearance of her entire family and kingdom…
The Firebird (1981, Switzerland, Animation, Dubbed)
King Baldovino is angry because his golden apple has been stolen, and he asks Prince Biondello to find the culprit, who turns out to be none other than a Firebird. While following the bird to the hideout of the terrible wizard Bardadargento, he gets captured. The wizard proposes a trade: his freedom for the beautiful princess Vassilissa…
The Three Brothers (1979, Switzerland, Animation, Dubbed)
Three brothers live in perfect harmony until one day they all fall in love with the same girl: the king’s daughter…
Pulcinella and the Magic Fish (1981, Switzerland, Animation, Dubbed)
One day, a magic fish bites the hook of poor Polichinelle and promises to fulfil all his wishes if he lets it live.
