"The Kite" is a short puppet animated film for kids. It talks about the issue of death, but in a simple metaphoric and symbolic way. It tries to explain the fact that none of us are here forever and all living creatures must die, but on the other hand, to show, that someone's journey doesn't have to end with death.

Full Circle is an animated short film that presents the Moon and Earth’s relationship through a narrative medium.

The humanistic vision of science acts as a launchpad for curiosity and allows the audience to access science through their own experiential libraries.
