Three well-meaning witches save Anastasia (Carla Besnainou) from the curse of death on her sixteenth birthday, dooming her to 100 years' sleep instead. But in this lyrical version of the tale by director Catherine Breillat, the heroine's slumber is filled with dreams. Anastasia wanders a fantasy world filled with allegories of love, heartbreak and desire. Julia Artamonov and Kérian Mayan co-star in this 2010 Toronto and Venice Film Festival hit.
