Princess

The 32-year-old clergyman August returns home from years of missionary work abroad because of the death of his sister Christina, who--after going from greatness to the gutter as the famous porno star "The Princess"--has finally died of drug abuse. She has left her five year-old daughter Mia with Karen, a prostitute. August pays them a visit to bring Mia home with him and become her guardian. Burdened by sorrow and guilt, he decides to avenge Christina's death and brings Mia along on a crusade to clear his sister's name of pornographic connotations. The mission escalates into a brutal and violent rout as August attempts desperately to protect the only thing he holds dear--namely Mia--forcing him to make a fateful decision.

  Ok, not awful but flawed, not Leon.
  
  This is a film which is easy to compare to things like Leon or The Boondock Saints. It fuses animated and live action sequences fairly well, establishing the ... read more »

  Animated revenge film from Denmark. It's bleak and disturbing but extremely well made, using (mostly) very effective splashes of live action footage and ... read more »
