L'Aubade

Animation, Fantasy

A poetic embodiment of an unsaid goodbye during the final two minutes of a dying man. He bids farewell to his wife while his soul is riding a fast train exiting his bodily realm. This is an animated odyssey constructed with vintage medical engraving illustration taken from century-old med-school textbooks. Inspired by a recent family mourning: Our reflection, contemplation and heart-to-heart dialogs that followed soon after that.
