Light Up

What do you do if you are a little girl with a passion for astronomy but you live in a world without any stars? Keep a heart full of hope and a close eye on the empty night sky would seem to be the answer in Light Up, a charming Belgian animated short.

Often in life we have to persevere and believe in something perhaps even when there is little or no evidence of its existence. Yet, for this little girl, something does finally appear one evening and it will change her life forever.

Light Up was created in 2011 by Aveline Stoquart and David Duvieusart, students at the Haute École Albert Jacquard in Namur, Belgium.
