Bader Short Film Programme
In this compelling short programme for our Bader Jurors, we shine a light on contemporary societal issues, from displacement to inequality—and showcase the inspiring power of resilience and courage in the face of even the harshest of adversity.
An enchanting and beautifully crafted animated short, ‘A Story for 2 Trumpets’ tells the tale of a young girl’s evolution into a woman and an artist. Through a series of spellbinding pastel vignettes accompanied by dreamlike music, we are whisked into a surreal world where metaphors and personal experiences melt together. A captivating tale about metamorphosis, adolescence and how the creative process can draw inspiration from all of life’s experiences.
