Little Red Riding Hood (Russian: Красная Шапочка) is a 2022 Russian children's fantasy film directed by Lina Arifulina, Aleksandr Barshak and Artyom Aksenenko.[1][2][3] It was theatrically released on September 22, 2022.[4]
Plot
The action of the fantastic tape begins long before the birth of Little Red Riding Hood and tells about her origin. A hundred years ago, two warring clans concluded a truce: the Wolfboys, the defenders of the fairy-tale city, agreed with the hawks that they would not leave the territory of the forest. For some time, the agreement was respected, but then werewolves began to be increasingly noticed near the settlement. The main Wolfboy and the father of Little Red Riding Hood decides to fight back dangerous predators, but dies in an unequal battle. The city is left defenseless and is at the mercy of Westar, the leader of a pack of wolves. Little Red Riding Hood's mother and her grandmother manage to get out of the panic-stricken city and reach a secluded place. After some time, a wonderful child is born who knows nothing about either his father or his destiny.
Only at the age of twelve, Little Red Riding Hood learns the secret of her kind - her mother and grandmother finally tell her about Wolfboy, whose daughter she is, and about what happened to him. Now the girl, in whom the hot blood of her brave parent flows, has to do what her father failed to do - to stop dangerous predators that threaten people again.[5]
