IC 01 International Competition 01 - Animated 1 - Crossing Worlds

Positioned on the fringes of mainstream, the animated short presents variety and formal diversity that are hard to beat. Whether a journey to the sun or a wild ride through the woods, whether living memory or lively fantasy—here we take on the perspective of planets, see the world through the eyes of a bird, or identify with a despondent brown bear. Enlightening, wacky, or macabre, the point hits its mark.
