Film and Shadow Puppet Animation Workshop
East meets West in this tale of puppetry, music and unexpected friendships, 1st Prize Jury Winner of the Chicago International Children’s Film Festival last year. A collision on a football pitch in Salzburg catapults Li into Danny’s life and brings about a trip to China to stay with Li’s grandfather, who is passionate about restoring an old shadow theatre. Will they manage to save the theatre and the beautiful stories it creates?
After the screening, join a Chinese artist to create and animate your very own shadow puppet.
