Mr. Fox tries to become fantastic, again!

Hello everyone! My name is Dalila, and I am a film student at SAE Amsterdam! I am currently working on a short film, called “Fantastic, Again”. "Fantastic, Again” is a reimagining of a scene from Wes Anderson’s "Fantastic Mr. Fox" as a stand-alone story about love, identity, and rediscovering what makes us unique and well, fantastic!

In this emotional story, we follow the Fox family, struggling through the pressures of modern life and the pursuit of happiness. Driven by a desire to provide a "better" life for his family, Mr. Fox sacrifices passion for practicality, leaving his home filled with laughter and colour slowly turning gray.

When Mr. Fox impulsively buys a TV to make the family feel "normal," he begins to lose sight of what made their lives magical in the first place.

The shooting days are most likely to take place on the 9th and 10th of January (with the chance to rehearse one day somewhere prior to the shooting days)!

The short film is approx. 8 minutes long and is entirely in English.

What do we offer?
Since this is a student production I am unfortunately unable to monetary compensation for the crew/cast. However, you will be given drinks, coffee, and food throughout the shooting days and will be welcomed by an amazing crew :).

-I am open to discuss a possible compensation for travel costs (within a reasonable range).
