Warmth
Whether to fight for survival or to take a chance on an enemy is the tough decision at the core of the CG animated short, Warmth. When a boy alone in the woods faces a tiger, the two realize that they’re not so different. This film, with its minimal setting evokes the cold isolation at the beginning but through its watercolor art direction and small message of empathy will leave audiences a little warmer.
