Desperate to escape her dreary existence and driven by an insatiable desire to win the heart of Prince Julian, Elvira embarks on a dangerous and disturbing quest for beauty. Think tapeworms, decomposing corpses, 19th century surgeries, and a healthy dose of black humour… Being an ugly stepsister isn’t easy, after all. An unsettling exploration of societal pressures and the lengths we’ll go to for love, The Ugly Stepsister is a darkly comedic and grotesque reimagining of the classic Grimm fairytale, premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, where it opened the Midnight Section.
