Project Detail

Star Games

Synopsis

Star Games is a visual narrative of a surreal galactic ballet that explains the origins of stars. The inhabitants of a futuristic metropolis train in their hundreds to contest in the Star Games. Patrolling zeppelins select individual gymnasts with a UFO-styled light beam. The gymnasts are pulled up towards the sky to perform a beautifully organic ballet before they dissolve into starlights.

The film’s emotive meaning is that each star symbolizes a past human life. Its message is that human beings are never alone but embedded, just like stars, in a community of others celebrating life with each other.
