30. Film Festival della Lessinia
Bosco Chiesanuova (Italia)
23 August - 1 September 2024

Students who have just graduated from Pôle 3D in France come together as a collective to co-direct their first short film. Au 8ème jour is the result of extraordinary animation work with a high visual impact, created with fabric and thread and accompanied by dramatic music. Animals of every species, plants, mountains, rivers, deserts: all the things in the world are interconnected through coloured threads, to form a balance in which "tout se tient". But the balance of nature is precarious if you interfere, and if black arrives it overwhelms the colours. It took seven days to make everything perfect but only one, the eighth day, is needed to mark the end of life on the Planet.
