EnsAD

Animated short film by a student from ENSAD's Animation department .

Synopsis

A succession of characters descend a long staircase. Once on stage, they dance, creating a chain of suspended movements that leave a trail of sand in their wake. The traces progressively fill the stage with sand and the individual dancers become one, united in a sphere of bodies … As for the public, they don't stay hidden in the dark but are beckoned to join in the dance.
