Why watch this film?

Dozens of productions in cinema and TV have traveled through the almost mythical figure of Frankenstein - and more specifically the Frankenstein monster, creature from Mary Shelley's book. Now, the story gets another look through the provocative and intriguing gaze of Greek filmmaker Costa Zapas - a director "discovered" by controversial Lars Von Trier. In 'Frankenstein's Mystery', he transposes Shelley's classic novel to the present day with a language that mixes gothic and animation elements, as well as reintroducing iconic characters from literature and cinema with peculiar touches to a haunted fairy tale. It's fun, it's daring, it's surprising. Just embark on the experimentalism.
