In the Shadow of the Cypress
Dar saaye sarv
When a beached whale runs ashore, a father and daughter disagree about its fate.
An old man with PTSD lives with his daughter in a seaside house of broken glass by the ruins of an old ship. When a whale beaches itself on the nearby shore, she wants to save it – he doesn’t. This sweeping, dialogue-free parable won Best Animated Short at Tribeca.
