Night Island

Director: Salvador Maldonado

Year: 2005

An enormous stone rests impossibly in a studio while a sculptor struggles to extract a figure from it. Soon the artist realises that he is not alone and he is drawn into the shadows where he discovers a parallel studio to his own. There he is faced with his own future creation as his memories, fears, illusions and betrayals become real. During the course of events he turns into a spectator of his own creative process, to discover that he has been assimilated by his work. The line between creator and created vanishes.

After the death of their ill-tempered and controlling father, middle-aged sisters Constantia (Con) and Josephine (Jug), find themselves at a loss. The story takes place in 1920 and is set within a European townhouse where Constantia and Josephine have always lived with their domineering father. The two sisters' mother died when they were young, and they have spent their lives enslaved to the rhythm and routine of Father’s house. Even in death they fear their father and imagine him springing out of the wardrobe or shouting at them from his grave. Over time, their father’s control diminishes and they find comfort in taking part in peaceful activities in each other’s company. An unexpected visitor also helps them to find the courage to begin their lives anew. A merry, rude, and lyrical, animated adaptation of the modernist short story written by Katherine Mansfield in 1920. In this adaptation the sisters will begin to assert themselves in joyful, unexpected ways that could only be depicted in animation.
