The Little Matchstick Girl is a compelling adaptation of the Hans Christian Andersen tale.

On a bitterly cold evening, a young girl is out on the streets alone, unable to sell her matches. For warmth she lights one by one, and through the flames she sees a succession of magical visions: a sparkling, spinning Christmas tree, a ballet-dancing chicken, a singing picture frame. In a unique combination of puppetry, mask and music, The Little Matchstick Girl finally finds the love and happiness she needs.
