THE CROSSING/LA TRAVERSÉE (Florence Mialhe 2021)

Riffing off memories of her mother and great grandmother the artist-filmmaker tells a story of siblings fleeing wartime violence, through many vicissitudes, to enter a new land. The story never quite jells, but the hand painted animated images are frequently gorgeous, evoking numerous modern artists with fluid line and brilliant color.
