From the Film Maker
The animation plays on the idea of entering a fantastical landscape, experienced through the form of six-year-old Lily, who unexpectedly goes on an adventure while wandering in the French countryside. What stood out most in the painting was an environment that looked somewhat magical, combined with the willow tree’s reflection. It was something I felt could be evolved further in an animated storyline.
