A young Arya reminisces about her summer vacations with her grandfather and that one camping trip that changed her life.
My first short film, an 8-minute stop motion animation film, that started off as a personal journey to explore my potential but went on to travel the world. This film was made almost entirely by me, from direction to animation to post production - my first exploration and deep dive into the world of stop motion animation, with the help and support of family and friends.
