‘Migrants’ Wins Best Short Prize at VIEW Fest 2020
Terry Flores “Migrants,” a deeply textured eight-minute animated short about a polar bear cub and its mother driven to look for a new home because of climate change, has been named the best short of VIEW Fest, the short film festival sponsored by the VIEW Conference in Turin, Italy.The story touched the international jury with its interwoven themes of global warming and immigration told through the experience of the homeless polar bears, who find themselves the subject of scorn and ridicule when they reach a new land populated by unfriendly brown bears. The film was made by fifth-year students at France’s POLE 3D: Zoé Devise, Lucas Lermytte, Hugo Caby, Aubin Kubiak and Antoine Dupriez.
