Plot

Set in a world of magical realism, "Wind" sees a grandmother and her grandson trapped down an endless chasm, scavenging debris that surrounds them to realize their dream of escaping to a better life.

Sinekatalog’s take

A grandmother and grandson scavenge at the bottom of a bottomless pit, dreaming of escape. The animation is textured and moody, and the storytelling relies on image and gesture rather than dialogue. A moving little fable about hope that rewards a few quiet minutes of attention.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
