As If It Could

When a plant isn’t growing well, you have to try to move it to a different location so that it gets more sun. This metaphor is the basis for an animation about the concept of borders and integration and what is needed for successful re-planting.

An inventive and minimalist film about emigration through the metaphor of a plant. A split screen that looks like a single shot and a formal and rhythmic game that is a pleasure to watch, almost always in green, yellow, black and white. The final, optimistic idea remains: despite the difficulties we encounter, we always bring back more than we took with us when we left. (Carlos Ramos)
