This is a wordless film about a papaya seed trying to float around and not be planted and having a grand adventure.
A visually stunning film is going to leave many people scratching their heads. Who exactly is this film for? Young kids will love the images and motion, slightly older kids will like it okay, and I suspect anyone beyond a certain age will wonder why this is a feature. There really isn't a great deal here with sections being more interesting than the whole.The film has things to say about the enviorment and how we treat it and the animals in the world but nthe presentation isn't always fluid and seems preachy.
While I don't dislike the film, I'm just not sure it will connect with its intended audience.
This film will be playing at the NYICFF in March
