A Love Story
What is the film about?
Told through the medium of stop motion, two characters, cocooned in their love, go on a heart breaking journey of self discovery. The richly textured world, made from soft cloud like fabrics, is a deceptively innocent space for the raw pain of the the lovers as they fight tooth and nail to hold on to what they once had. It’s a love story, but not like you’ve seen before.
What influenced it?
An influence while making the film was the 2015 documentary ‘Amy’ by Asif Kapadia. In the film Amy describes about being truthful when she writes her songs which then helps her to connect with the audience when performing them. And hearing that was an inspiration to try and be as truthful as possible even though the story was set in a some what surreal world.
