From acclaimed director Matteo Garrone comes a darkly enchanting fantasy horror that weaves together three distinct tales of obsession, desire, and the monstrous lengths people will go to fulfill their deepest wishes. In a mythical kingdom, a barren queen ( Salma Hayek) makes a desperate pact with a sea creature to conceive a child, while a lustful king ( Vincent Cassel) becomes entranced by the voice of a mysterious woman he imagines as a beauty, only to discover she is an elderly crone. Meanwhile, another ruler ( Toby Jones) becomes obsessed with a giant flea, leading his daughter ( Bebe Cave) down a path of bizarre and perilous consequences. With a haunting, dreamlike atmosphere and a stellar ensemble cast that includes John C. Reilly and Shirley Henderson, Tale of Tales, The transforms the gothic fairy tales of Giambattista Basile into a visually stunning and unsettling meditation on power, vanity, and the price of magic. Each narrative unfolds with grotesque beauty, blurring the line between enchantment and horror.
