The short films:
Field Mushroom
A little white beetle is jealous of the colourful patterns on all his fellow beetles. But sometimes, being white and inconspicuous can actually come in very handy. A bit of variety is needed!
Little Dreamer
One ordinary morning, Lily lets her imagination run wild and everything changes: her house, her bus and her school fly away, and amidst cloud hair, breakfast cereal boats and ladybird rockets, she takes young and old alike on a fantastic adventure!
The Little Shoemaker
On a timeless street in Paris stands a shoemaker’s shop. Mr Botte tends to his shoes with such passion and craftsmanship that they come to life in his hands. Until one day, a street vendor sets up his stall right in front of Mr Botte’s shop.
A Long Story Short - The What, Where and How of Your Clothes
A girl and her favourite T-shirt tell us the story behind our clothes – the what, where and how. We follow the global journey from the raw materials right through to the shop. Do we choose fast fashion or sustainability?
Belmont
In a vast landscape stands a lonely station that has not been used for a long time. And even when a train does arrive, it passes the little station by.
The Mitten
It is snowing. Lily and Grandad are making a bird house to help the birds survive over the winter. 'Where do the other animals in the garden find shelter in winter?' wonders Lily? She puts one of her mittens at the foot of the tree where they have fastened the bird house.
Our Uniform
A woman recounts how she was required to wear a hijab during her school years, at a time when she was in the process of discovering her own identity. Looking back on her childhood, the filmmaker uses the hijab itself as a canvas for her animation.
