Asa Butterfield, Rob Brydon and Alison Steadman lend their voices to this elegant Tim Burton-esque animation. Adapted from Guy Bass’s children’s book, Stitch Head is a warm-hearted story about loneliness, purpose and self-discovery that’s cloaked in humour and Gothic style.

It’s monster time! In the eerie castle laboratory of Grotteskew, perched high above the town of Grubbers Nubbin, a Mad Professor (Brydon) spends his days creating strange, stitched-together creatures and bringing them to “Almost Life” (registered trademark, patent pending). So who takes care of these creations? Meet a little fellow called Stitch Head (Butterfield) – the Professor’s very first experiment, long forgotten and quietly devoted to keeping the castle’s monsters safe from the fearful townspeople below.
