Online cinema KION has announced the date of the Russian premiere of the family animated film “The Amazing Maurice” directed by Toby Genkel, who has created many projects for young audiences. This is a film adaptation of the novel from the huge cycle “The Flat World” by Terry Pratchett, one of the most famous storytellers of our time. By the way, the cartoon was voiced in Russian by actor Sergei Burunov (“Policeman from Rublyovka”, “Mylodrama”).
According to the plot of the film, villagers panic when their houses are captured by a horde of smart rats. They do not eat poison, do not fall into traps, and dodge shoes. Then a mysterious master comes to the rescue, luring rodents into the nearest pond with music. Of course, all this is a hoax, because rats are excellent swimmers …
Pictures by Toby Genkel have repeatedly been included in the programs of international film festivals. So, “The Amazing Maurice” was shown at Sundance, and another of his films — “Trio in Feathers” — at the Berlinale 2017 in the Generation Kplus program. Genkel also worked for Ulysses Films for many years, their joint projects “Oops… Noah sailed away!” (2015) and “Oops… Come on!” (2020) before the release, they also got to the famous festivals.
The story of the adventures of the cat and his rodent friends “Amazing Maurice” will be available to subscribers of the KION online cinema tomorrow, March 10 this year.
