Coraline 3D - Gala Screening
Based on Neil Gaiman’s international best-selling book and helmed by The Nightmare Before Christmas director Henry Selick is the first high definition, stop-motion animated feature to be shot in 3-D.
In the film, a young girl (voiced by Dakota Fanning) walks through a secret door in her new home and discovers an alternate version of her life. On the surface, this parallel reality is eerily similar to her real life – only much better. But when this wondrously off-kilter, fantastical adventure turns dangerous and her counterfeit other mother (voiced by Teri Hatcher) tries to keep her forever, Coraline must count on her stubborn determination, bravery, and the aid of her neighbours and a talking black cat to save her real parents and some ghost children and get back home.
Post screening Neil Gaiman was interviewed by Derek O’Connor, Programme Director - Darklight Festival
Award winning writer/director Neil Jordan joined the Q&A and announced that he would be working with Gaiman on his next screenplay The Graveyard .
