Overview
A powerfully graphic piece of animation that best expresses John Halas' own feelings about mans universal quest for freedom.
Reviews
The opening slide gives us an idea as to what is intended here - an abstract ballet depicted through shapes. Initially, these shapes are random, but they evolve into more recognisable and better defined ones: human, animal, vegetable - and much of the pace comes from an evocative score that accompanies the simple but interesting animation. Firstly, a bird flying high, caught in a storm, exhausted but still migrating across land, desert and sea. It encounters an human before reverting back to the abstract and the ending. It's got a slightly evolutionary theme to it, I thought, as it finished pretty much where it starts. It's as enjoyable to listen to as it is to watch. Give it a go!
