Home [ 2021 ]

Animated short competition entry for 2021, 'Home'.

This short film started as a Duik experiment that organically developed into a deeper/wider narrative. Made during the extended early 2021 lockdown, the piece explores the emotional reaction to loss of freedoms, lack of hope and the value of friendships and family.

“ Featuring Edward Elgar's 'Nimrod', which has always been a personal favourite, I hope the film brings a sense of positive, sentimental warmth to those that get to the end. So far, it's been really well-received and that is, obviously, very pleasing. ”
