Honestly ,I would expect something better...

Warning: Spoilers
Granny O'Grimm is apparently a cute old lady and her granddaughter is a terrified little buddy waiting for her grandma for her bedtime story. Even before the story begins she is already too scared to enjoy the story. I assumer she already knows what kind of a story teller her grandma is. According to what I have read on the net, the character Granny is inspired by a character in Irish writer Kathleen O'Rourke's stand-up comedy show. The granny has such long and upright hair, a style looks like Marge's blue beehive hairstyle in Simpsons. Though she looks calm,sweet and non-cantankerous she shows her real face when she starts reading "Sleeping Beauty" in her version. She creates her own world of fairies where they are badgered by an old woman who was forgotten long ago. The animation looks pretty artistic though you may need a bit of knowledge about Kathleen O'Rourke's writing and Grimm fairy tales. The granny's bursting out the story in her own bitterness and resentment doesn't really look pleasing either. If you are not into dark short movies you won't like it.
