A Shadow of Blue


Nothing can be quite so liberating as the imagination and the imagination of a child is freer than any.  A little girl, alone on a park bench allows her thoughts and dreams to roam free, her fantasies setting her off on a short but exciting adventure.  If you need a little cheering up then I can’t recommend this animated short enough. 

A Shadow of Blue was directed by Carlos Lascano. An Illustrator, photographer, writer, animator and director, Carlos has achieved international recognition. In the past few years he has developed a universe of his own, where all his different forms of expression merge together in creating a whole, personal world.  Watch A Shadow of Blue – you’ll see what I mean.  You won't be surprised, once you watch this, to learn that it was nominated for the Best Animated Short at the 84th Academy Awards.
