Description

Paulette, a young girl, sees the same shooting star every night and wishes for the return of her mysteriously missing pet rat. Despite her nightly wish, the pet doesn’t come back, and Paulette begins to suspect that something might be wrong with her star. ‘Filante’ is a touching, dialogue-free animated short that explores themes of hope, loss, and wonder through a visually stunning journey across the night sky. The cut-out animation style adds an element of dreamlike beauty to this poetic tale.
