Away

After a mysterious crash landing, a young boy wakes up alone on an exotic island. Inhabited by a menagerie of friendly creatures, the island is also home to a dark spirit, whose touch instantly kills. With the aid of a motorcycle and a songbird, the boy must travel across strange lands to escape the spirit pursuing him and find his way home. This stunning and minimalist animation was written, produced, directed, scored, and animated entirely by award-winning filmmaker Gints Zilbalodis, and is equally inspired by reality, dreams, and waking fantasies.
