“The Mourning After…” takes viewers into the curiosities of the voiceless yet inquisitive sidewalk plant as it stands witness to the life of the neighborhood dog. Filled with questions on the world and beyond, the main character finds itself diving into the complexities of emotions, including grief.
A study on self-discovery, “Gunita” follows the adventures of a figure ridden with the anxieties of turning into a mere shadow. As it embarks on a journey to regain facets of its forgotten identity, each attempt at recollection is a confrontation of memories from the past — a childhood home, the first pet, and an old playground.
“Grim Symphony” introduces a boy lost in the dark woods, wherein he encounters three creatures who torment him — the first mocks, the next manipulates, and the last scares. Amid what seems to be a hopeless bid to get away, someone comes in to bring the light.
