I don't think we talk enough about Rui's directing.
Rui who rewrites stories,
Rui who creates a new story where the Ugly Duckling is accepted nonetheless,
Rui who creates a Red Riding Hood where the grandma shares the pastries with the wolf,
Rui who takes ancient tales of knights killing dragons and makes them friends instead. Not pets, not subordinates β€” friends.
Rui who takes all these gruesome stories about hatred and death that are supposed to educate kids about the Earth they live in and reshapes them into kinder, softer, more colourful worlds for all the world to see.
Where the wolf isn't a synonym for villain, where a child would never be abandoned, where innocence is neverland and never lost.
Where all that is broken can always be fixed and where Cinderella can kiss her princess under the moonlight with no worry in the world.
