Description:

As in her previous film, the award-winning THE HOMETOWN, the filmmaker has used appliqué and embroidered tapestries to animate a story from her childhood. DISTANT ISLANDS recalls a young girl's happy summers spent sailing with her family off the coast of British Columbia. Each tapestry, meticulously stiched by hand with brightly coloured yarns, evokes a memory of leisurely days at sea, drifting among the islands. <6mn 8s>
