Behind the scenes — Prague, Czech Republic

Fairytales,
made in Prague.

In partnership with Three Brothers Productions, VALU worked on two fairytale features shot in and around Prague: Princess Goldilocks and Princess Lost in Time. Castles, armour, smoke-filled battlefields — and the crews who made it all happen.

Also in Prague, we worked with director Kathir Pandian on the movie RAANI.

01

Princess Goldilocks

The royal squire Jirik disobeys his king and tastes the meat of a magical snake, and gains the ability to understand the language of animals. As punishment, Jirik is forced to embark on a long and dangerous journey with his longtime friend Stepán and the dog Lucky to find the mysterious Princess Goldilocks.

02

Princess Lost in Time

The young alchemist Amélie acquires a forbidden magical power that lets her partially influence the flow of time. But abusing it has a serious side effect: she becomes split in time, and her present self meets her past self, who begins to accompany her on her journey.
