Who says animation is only for kids? As we fall out of childhood and into adulthood, reality and imagination start weaving the world we live in—blurring, tangling, never quite clear. From the identity struggles of Hong Kong’s queer community, to the quiet battles of the working class, to the existential weight carried by city dwellers—these complex, three-dimensional selves are often flattened into frames we can’t say aloud or capture on film. And beyond each frame lies reality, projecting itself back at us—whispering softly, shouting underneath.
As human beings, we are social animals, yet hopelessly alone. In states of solitude, each of us often encounters our own power animal.
