Director: Claude Cloutier

Canada, 2007, 10 min

Betty sleeps in a narcoleptic stupor. The king appeals to his subjects to wake the princess, and a number of them rise to the challenge, including a handsome prince. But can Betty be wakened with just a kiss? Sleeping Betty is the Perreault classic revisited by the sharp pen of Claude Cloutier. His ornate, India-ink animation sweeps us away to a disjointed, anachronistic and playful world inspired by Victorian engravings.
