From the film-maker:
An allegory of Prudence was my chosen painting. It pictures Titian, his son and his nephew. These characters represent stages in a man’s life. The painting is inscribed with a Latin quotation which translates as: ’From the past the man of the present acts prudently so as not to imperil the future.’ I understand this to mean that the past has made you who you are, but you choose your future.
Based on this concept, my animation shows how the choices and steps we choose to take will affect our future.
