Best Experimental 2018 Winner

Angels, They Say

This three-minute, stop-motion animation, uses handmade drawings and cut paper to create an enigmatic world, inhabited by the familiar and the extraordinary. Interweaving voices recite excerpts from Rainer Maria Rilke’s First Duino Elegy, a wistful accompaniment to a lyrical meditation on mortality.
