Resan till Fjäderkungens Rike

Resan till Fjäderkungens Rike

Sailing with his father on the sea, in search of carefree adventures and the same life, the rabbit Johan felt great. And suddenly everything changes, having once been alone in a boat while his father was on the shore, the boy hears on the radio that there is a chance to save his missing mother. The little daredevil has to go through quite adult tests, since she is far away. He goes to the kingdom beyond the distant seas, from where few have returned and where King Pirin rules. And the boy decides to take on this test, which is not for everyone, but it will raise a real hero in him and make him see a new world with adult decisions. More Justifying itself in most cases from the commercial side, 3D has now also reached Swedish cinematographers. When the project was launched into production, it immediately stood out because Swedish studios had not made stereoscopic cartoons before. In addition, to some extent, this animated film reached a level that is more characteristic of the works of Studio Ghibli, namely the anime films of Hayao Miyazaki. However, Esben Toft Jacobsen did not just copy, but tried to do something worthy, so to speak, at the level of a Japanese animation director. On the screenplay, the director worked together with Jannik Tai Mosholt, with whom he wrote the story for his previous, first full-length work, How to Train Your Bear (2011). The treasury of the cartoon "Over the Far Seas" was replenished by the local film institute, and in addition, Dansky, who also participated in the creation of the film. As a result, the budget consisted, in addition to other cash infusions, of one and a half million Danish kroner and nine million Swedish kroner. Since there is not so much difference between 3D and stereo cinema format, "Over the Far Seas" acts as the first film for Sweden in just the second version of the three-dimensional image.
