Description

When change fiercely storms the city, a weary bird searches for a little place of solace.

Director's Bio

Elisa was born in Vancouver, BC. Since graduating from the animation program at Emily Carr in 2003, Elisa has directed an animated music video, “Scenes,” collaborated with documentary filmmakers to create illustrative animated sequences for broadcast and festival screenings, and mentored in many animation and digital storytelling workshops in remote communities within BC and the Yukon.
