Los Angeles Premiere

Screens as part of SHORTS PROGRAM: ANIMATION 2

Just outside of Tokyo lives Miho, a lonely widow. One day, she meets a stray cat that follows her home and makes himself more than comfortable in her tiny apartment in this stop-motion animated film about isolation, adventure and connection.

Amanda Aagard comes from a background in theater and set design. Together with Alexander Toma’s technical background in photography and editing, the pair make a powerful duo. Their films explore the subjects of loneliness and belonging and have a minimalistic approach to dialogue.
