THIERRY DE MEY's "Ma Mère l'Oye"

Composer and filmmaker Thierry De Mey's short film set to Maurice Ravel's "Ma Mère l'Oye"(Mother Goose) was created in 2004 by commission from ARTE. The ballet written in 1908 is inspired by the fairy tales of Charles Perrault. This 28-minute film is a fascinating collage filmed in the woods outside Brussels.
