floatl

Floatl is a hybrid stop-motion animation made in Mexico City and Berlin. It combines analog materials with multilayered compositing of video and drawings. It is an audio-visual experience where we witness a realm of wonder, contemplation, moving textures and dissolving colors.
In this imaginary aquatic world two characters meet and it ignites a poetic dialog between the two elements. Fire and water.

Let it Floatl.
