In a city devastated by war, it can be difficult to sleep, let alone dream. To ease a women’s anguish, Night tricks her into seeing her missing child one last time.
Based on the true story of a mother the filmmaker met in Palestine, ‘Night’ is a haunting and superbly crafted stop-animation about war, bereavement, and unimaginable sorrow. When the sun sets, and what little warmth and light that is left disappears, Night begins to watch over the people below. But in a city devastated by bombings, it can be difficult to sleep, let alone dream. To ease a women’s anguish, Night tricks her into seeing her missing child one last time.
