Almost There - Short Film

NFTS

On a train journey without stops or destination, an observer goes to extreme lengths to avoid other passengers, a giant baby runs away from his parents, a romantic woman starts a relationship with a cuckoo, and a naive boy discovers that some problems cannot be fixed with pictures of unicorns.

Directed by Nelly Michenaud and created at the National Film and Television School, this film explores the absurdity of life whilst combining stop-motion with 2D animation in a truly unique way. The film exhibited at many festivals around the world and was nominated for a Royal Television Society award.
