Bristol designer/director Chris Hopewell returns to directing with this spooky stop-motion folktale with a terrible twist for Radiohead’s “Burn the Witch,” recalling the style of vintage UK kid’s shows like The Trumptonshire Trilogy.
Hopewell (who directed the ambitious stop-motion dream “There There” for Radiohead back in 2003), and his Bristol crew animated “Burn the Witch” over 14 days at his Jacknife studio.
