Metamorphosis

Synopsis

Metamorphosis is a film that has evolved from trying to explore the subconscious level of the mind and deliberately not having a story plan but going along with a loose hunch. The resulting images that are hand-drawn metamorphose from 'humans' to 'owls and pussycats' and back again.
