Blind Willow Sleeping Woman

Screening tonight at the TIFF, Pierre Földes’ Blind Willow Sleeping Woman, adapted from a collection of short stories by Haruki Murakami.

I got to edit this film and am in awe of the process which involved live-action reference filming for every shot, 3D models, 2D drawings and hundreds of hours of dedicated craftsmanship by many talented people. Watch for it.
