A reckless boy in an almost desperate and troublesome way persistently seeks the attention of his photographer father whose chaotic artistic life and obsessive fascination with photography eventually become essential for strengthening the father-son bond.
In a story that combines hand-drawn and stop motion animation with collage technique, the author takes his audience on a ride through the archive of Slovenian photographer Dragiša Modrinjak, and at the same time draws from personal experience as a filmmaker and father.
Director's Bio: Miloš Tomić (1976) graduated in Film Directing from the Academy of Arts in Belgrade in 2001. He holds an MA in Animation from FAMU (Prague), class of Petar Skala.
