MURMURATION
Janneke Swinkels, Tim Frijsinger | Netherlands| 2025 | 13 min. | No dialogues
A quiet resident of a retirement home begins to experience peculiar changes: feathers sprout from his head, his limbs acquire an unfamiliar lightness, and his words gradually transform into soft chirps and whistles. This charming stop-motion animation offers an intimate, almost documentary-like view of daily life in a nursing home, with just a touch of magical realism.
