“Pointé de Couture” is a musical retelling and deconstruction of Charles Perrault’s classic tale of “Cendrillon” or “Cinderella” without the magic.  Rose, a dressmaker, frustrated with her designs being accredited to a “Fairy Godmother”, seeks to be acknowledged as her childhood friend Ella has used Rose’s designs to achieve her personal goals of becoming a princess.

The International Narrative Deconstruction Authority Fairytale Investigation Bureau has some questions for Rose. We take a journey through time to discover what could have actually occurred while exploring the dynamics of friendship, honesty, and giving credit where credit is due. “Pointé de Couture” is autobiographical in nature, as the artist draws from personal experiences to create a fresh narrative in this rotoscope style live-action short film.
