KWALHIA SELECTION : A SIRIUS TRANS/MISSIONS
The Amber Thief is a short stop-motion animation film and poem that reimagines the predator-prey relationship between a spider and a fly.
I came up with the story of The Amber Thief while I was daydreaming and sketching random characters in distinct situations. I found myself with a drawing a spider and a fly dining at a table together. The irony of that image was so captivating to me, and the plot was written with that main event in mind.
