Synopsis

A beautiful journey into a world as mysterious as it is poetic

Four-year old Juliette and eight-year-old Carmen are adventurous sisters who discover a secret passageway to enter the Kingdom of the Winds, their favorite book. As they are transformed into cats and separated from one another, they will have to display courage and audacity to find their way back to each other and to the real world, with the help from Selma the opera singer. They will also have to stand against Sirocco, master of winds and storms… but is he as terrifying as they imagine him to be?

Benoît Chieux is one of the names to watch in French animation. Sirocco and the Kingdoms of the Winds takes the viewer on an unexpected journey and into a world as mysterious as it is poetic. Wonders unfold in this world of imagination where creatures of all kinds make their way.

Kritiken

"It’s in the character of Selma – the beauty of her voice and of her empathy – that the film finds its soul. The score, by Pablo Pico is gorgeous throughout, lush, sweeping and richly orchestrated. But when Selma sings – French-Cameroonian jazz vocalist Célia Kameni provides her voice – it is spine-tingling. A velvety purr that gradually builds, soaring and pure, it’s a voice that legitimately could have come from another world.’
