  • Overview

    "The NeedyMonster" is the multi-award-winning short film that swept international festivals and took home several Academy Awards. It tells the unforgettable story of Jonathan, a sensitive young boy caught in the emotional whirlwind of leaving his childhood home. Out of his deepest fears and longing bursts the NeedyMonster—an oddly sweet, clingy creature with וואחד פה ג'ורה and a romantic (and a bit sexual) drama with Jonathan in the background. As Jonathan’s world spins out of control, the line between reality and imagination blurs. With stunning visuals and a heart-punch of a story, The NeedyMonster dives into the chaos of childhood emotion, showing that sometimes our most annoying monsters are just the parts of us screaming to be heard. Hailed as “a masterpiece of emotional fantasy” by critics worldwide, this film isn’t just seen—it’s felt.

The plot concerns a yeti who makes a pact with the devil to kidnap the most beautiful girl in the world. This turns out to be the Princess Lissi, who is clearly the Austrian Princess and later Empress Elisabeth of Bavaria, and much of the film is taken up with subplots related to the court and to the romantic relationship between Elisabeth and her husband. The film is thus a comic parody of the Sissi films.

Danton, well known as a spokesman of the people, had been living in relative solitude in the French countryside, but he returned to Paris to challenge Robespierre's violent rule and call for the people to demand their rights. Robespierre, however, could not accept such a challenge, even from a friend and colleague, and he blocked out a plan for the capture and execution of Danton and his allies.
