Aesop's Fables (JP)
Original title: まんがイソップ物語
Aesop is a trouble-making young boy who finds himself in another world filled with creatures he never believed to exist, such as fairies and talking donkeys. He sets off to find a way back to the normal world. On his journey he befriends many classical creatures from well-known fables and encounters...

I've been rewatching #TheDevilsCarnival and #Alleluia, and I think the reason why I keep coming back to them is how much they make the viewer work to understand their meanings, yet the payoff for that work is so rewarding. Every time I rewatch them, I notice some new detail in the sets or costumes or lyrics that adds to the experience. So few movies today expect the audience to actively engage with the media that way, and sometimes that can be nice and needed.

But sometimes I just want to watch a truly weird, goth #musical about rebellion and fables and sift through multiple levels of meaning while humming strange songs full of lyrics detailing creepy imagery.

Anyone know of any other similarly weird, indie musicals or movies I should look into?

@Aloof my dad had a copy of #AesopsFables with illustrations by #gustavedore. I can only remember a few of the tales, but the art was spectacular

A little wolf pup for my ongoing Aesop’s Fables project. (I changed the paws slightly after I took the picture; some of the toes weren’t aligned quite right!!)
