Synopsis

Caroline Leaf's second animated short film. The filmmaker reinterprets the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice in a very free and poetic way. Here, human figures constantly transform into elements of nature—flowers, birds, fish, and even a centaur—underscoring the ever-changing nature of love and identity, and placing more emphasis on the transformative power of art and music than on the myth's usual tragic ending.
