Christopher Vourlias Six years after “Loving Vincent,” their groundbreaking biopic of the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh earned an Oscar nomination and raked in more than $50 million at the global box office, the filmmaking team behind that hit is back with a bigger, more ambitious animated feature that utilizes the same stunning hand-painted animation technique to tell an operatic story of life and love in a 19th century Polish village. “The Peasants” world premiered Sept.
8 as a special presentation at the Toronto Film Festival. The film is based on the novel by Nobel Prize-winning author Władysław Reymont and follows a young woman who’s determined to follow her heart in a God-fearing village where homespun traditions of family and faith rigidly define the roles of each member of the community.
Forced to marry a wealthy, widowed landowner despite her love for his son, she sets off on a collision course that ultimately turns the village against her — and propels her into a desperate fight for her independence.
Directed by D.K. Welchman (formerly known as Dorota Kobiela) and Hugh Welchman, the anticipated follow-up to “Loving Vincent” uses the same animation technique that dramatically brought the paintings of van Gogh to life in the duo’s Oscar-nominated debut.
