Synopsis

'Red shoes & the seven dwarfs' is a new version of the 'Snow White' classic, but a little crazier. In this case, the story experiments itself a completely change. The princes of every kingdom has been transformed into a green dwarf and, if they want to break the charm, they will need to find the red shoes of a very special lady. Finally, that task , that at the start seemed to be very simple, will be transformed into an adventure difficult to forget.

The animation film is directed by Hong Sung-Ho ('Wonderful days', 2003; 'Egeukolla: Samag-ui gijeog' , 2003) who has said that the film shows "an uncomfortable truth", Moo-Hyun Jang y Young Sik Uhm and it is thought as a family comedy that pretends to launch a message that challenges the social prejudices related with the physic beauty standard. In the cast, we will meet as voice actors in the original version famous people as Chloë Grace Moretz ('Suspiria') as Snow White, Sam Clafin ('Me before you') as Merñín, Patrick Warburton ('Men in Black II') will be the voice of the Magic Mirror and Gina Gershon ('P.S. I love you') will be the Witch.

  • A problematic ad

    In May 2017 at a Cannes Film Festival showcase of the film, an ad campaign showing two ladies side by side, one slender and tall the other heavier and shorter came under fire for its controversial tag line "what if Snow White was no longer beautiful and the dwarfs no longer short". Chloe Moretz was quick to defend the movie, saying it had a very positive message. However, when a backlash on social media erupted against the film, Moretz quickly changed her stance and claimed to be "appalled" by the campaign, taking to social media and claiming she had no prior knowledge of the ad's creation and that she was "appalled and angry with the message that it conveyed." The campaign was shortly pulled and a statement from the producers explained that they regret the decision they made in regards to producing the ad.
