Once upon a time there were three neighboring kingdoms each with a magnificent castle, from which ruled kings and queens, princes and princesses. One king was a fornicating libertine, another captivated by a strange animal, while one of the queens was obsessed by her wish for a child. Sorcerers and fairies, fearsome monsters, ogres and old washerwomen, acrobats and courtesans are the protagonists of this loose interpretation of the celebrated tales of Giambattista Basile.
Starring academy award nominee Salma Hayek (Frida, Desperado, Once Upon a Time in Mexico) and Vincent Cassel (Black Swan, Eastern Promises) in its leads, Tale of Tales is award winning director Matteo Garrones (Gomorra, Reality) first English-spoken feature film. Also featuring John C. Reilly (Guardians of the Galaxy, Magnolia), Toby Jones (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) and Shirley Henderson (Marie Antoinette, Bridget Jones’s Diary).
