On the 8th Day

France2023animated8'Międzynarodowy konkurs krótkometrażowy (2024)

Seven days were needed to create the world, but one day was enough to destroy everything. The authors of this animated film invite the viewers to a beautiful land, woven of colourful yarn, where the seas are full of colourful fish, the skies – of birds soaring calmly, and jungles and savannas – of animals living in symbiosis. Unfortunately, darkness and gloom creep imperceptibly into this ideal world, gradually engulfing more and more space, devouring the fauna and flora. In this apocalyptic vision of the world, man – responsible for the destruction of nature – can no longer do anything to reverse the planet’s fate.
