SILENT PANORAMA
Nicolas Piret / Belgium / 2024 / 5 min / Colour
In the midst of nature, at the base of a cliff, two campers intrigued by outside noises cross the deserted landscape, lamp in hand. Creaks, drips and other sounds animate these places, home to a silent fauna, almost invisible but very much present. The result of an original artistic choice, this short film was drawn and animated on a single sheet of paper.
