EDGAR, an unsympathetic bachelor who devoted himself to the compulsive logic of reason and the categorical imperative, not only denies the existence of coincidences and strokes of fate, he also despises those to which the inexplicable happens.
True to the motto: “Every man forges his own destiny” EDGAR sees himself as the most talented of all blacksmiths. Bad luck is something for others, if someone experiences it – it is just their own fault.
But fate (in the form of a truly strange angel) is on the point of sending him on a tour riddled with coincidences and misfortunes, to disabuse him…
ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Our in-house production „STRANGEL – THE ANGEL OF THE ODD“ is a hand-animated, stereoscopic 3D-animation short film which follows with it’s content and atmosphere, one of the few comedic but at the same time wonderful bizarre stories of past master Edgar Allan Poe.
The idea to transform a literary work from the 19th century into a animated film developed in 2007. After first visual concepts and a first script draft, morro images cooperated in spring 2009 with Twistville to create the final script for a 18 minute long animated short. Morro images will release the film about an unbelievable story and it’s narcissistic main character EDGAR at the end of 2012.
