"Most of us can imagine a time when we felt tethered to something or someone we knew wasn't right for us. Perhaps a job takes too much energy, a loved one needs care that's physically and emotionally demanding, or we find ourselves in a situation where we feel stuck and don't know how to let go. That's the universally relatable premise of the enigmatic short film " Sisters.""
"The short animated film is directed by Andrea Szelesová and produced by Pure Shore Films. It follows the mysterious routine of a young woman. We observe a daily trip to feed and water an unusually large figure that seems to grow bigger every day, half-wedged into the earth amid an expansive meadow. As time passes, the interaction becomes more exhausting, and it appears the monumental figure's health is slowly fading."
The short animated film Sisters portrays a young woman's ritual of tending an enormous, partially buried figure in a meadow. The woman feeds and waters the figure daily as it grows larger and more dependent. The caregiving becomes draining and the figure's health seems to decline. Eventually something emerges in the figure's place that matches the tenderness of the woman's care. The film frames transition and 'letting go' as a freeing process that can reveal beauty and personal meaning. The film is directed by Andrea Szelesová and produced by Pure Shore Films.
