Animation

Adventure of a Japanese boy who wanders in France where the violence of a strange environment and strange language penetrate his mind and he starts to have incoherent illusions. What happens to the boy between illusions printed in him and tyrannically cruel reality? The work was animated with 6,000 wood block prints to express the gaps and shakes of megalomaniac illusions.
