comments

Director Bill August said of the film, “The transformation of Ehringard into a Netflix movie is a great opportunity and I can’t wait to bring this wonderful story of temptation and desire to audiences around the world. Queen Margaret II has created some amazing designs that will be the dominant feature of the entire film’s scenography.” The concept of ‘cool’ (literally) is our starting point for this project. We want to use humor and elegance to give life to the rude universe, comic, groovy, and free images.”

Even Queen Margaret II spoke in a note about her engagement as follows: “I have always been fascinated by Karen Blixen’s stories of her aesthetic, the fiction that defines her and those worlds I define as fiction. Part of this project. The author was a visual artist like HC Andersen. But who is Ehrengard?” One of Karen Blixen’s most interesting female characters, and one of the few with a happy ending story. Plots intertwine.” One with the other and Blixen spins the characters around until they’re completely confused…and we’re with them. How do we transfer all this to scenography? I tried to interpret the author’s wonderful world by focusing on decoupage and fashion. I’m curious to see Erengard’s story come to life in this film.”
