An animation about a child who heals himself 
under the isolation and loneliness of his parents.


a project about family relationships and healing from a child’s perspective.

Director & Animation: Fiona Jingxin Chen
Music: Sobhan Afsarianmohassel
Sound:
Odysseas Pantazis
Script: Deqin Wangmu
Animation assistant:  Frances Keung

This animation was inspired by conversations I had with friends during these years. In many of those conversations, I found that a lot of the personalities each person presents now are a result of the stage they were in as a young child during their childhood. 

Among them, loneliness, being left out, and not being understood during childhood account for the majority. Therefore, I want to create an animation depicting a kid who is trying to heal his loneliness and isolation caused by her parents.
