Girl in the Water

Gazing at wall cancer and the scar, the woman recalls some ups and downs of love. "Girl in the Water" is a hand-drawn animation, which is feminine and at a slow narrative rhythm, painted in watercolor and pastel frame by frame. The warm characteristic of hand drawing contrasts quite markedly with the distress that the main character suffers. The film talks about the convalescence of broken hearts. By the process of fixing wall, viewers are able to experience the journey of convalescence.
