Out of Nowhere

An old lifeguard sits by the pool each day and every day. Yet the pool has had no water in it for years. Still the old man sits and waits – but nothing happens. Then, one day, he receives an unexpected visitor, one which forces him to re-evaluate his existence.

This poignant animated short was created by Maayan Tzuriel and Isca Mayo as their graduation film from Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Israel in 2012.
