UNDER COVER
Synopsis:
This graduation work is an animated film based on a short story by Mihovil Rismondo, a colleague from the Academy of Dramatic Art. The theme is bullying, with an accent on the socio-psychological aspect. Set in school days, it is a story about boys who physically demonstrate their misunderstanding of someone who is different and take this behaviour to its limit. With the idea to create an original visuality, different techniques of material preparations have been used, as well as different animation techniques. In terms of genre, the film combines drama and horror, ending in a catharsis.
