Synopsis

The city of London has a beauty about it, but can sometimes be lonely for its inhabitants. Starting at dusk and ending at dawn the next morning, this film explores this idea of loneliness through four different scenarios showing the full gamut of life and death in the city, and exemplifies how indifference can exacerbate this plague of modern times.

Visually expressive and highly emotive, this film, though only five minutes long, works on a scale (visually and emotionally, that is) as big as the city it portrays. It is made using traditional forms of animation, as well as new forms such as computer animation, all skilfully composited together to convey feeling and emotion and life in an intuitive, expressive way.

Synopsis

As the world sleeps, a man dreams and his dream-spirit explores the winding streets of a slumbering watery town. He travels as a ball of light and sees hints and suggestions of a woman who evades him. She appears variously as a shadow, a footprint or the reflection of a face just turning away. Whether she is living or dead is unclear. As night slowly recedes and nature covers the traces of past loves, they come together in a final meeting and fade away forever.

Synopsis

Once upon a time in a place not far away
Lived a lovely little girl, whose name was Emily
But the good times and the smiles will be over soon
For a chainsaw and a witch, she'll meet beneath the moon
Add a cruel twist of fate that will kill tranquillity
And how it unfolds, you have to watch and see.
