This is my short film about someone who is displaced in their world and is longing to be where others are.
Will they get there in the end?

I created this animation during a very vulnerable point in my life where I also felt out of place, I was juggling between my dark moments, seeing my doctor, and finishing this film. It was challenging both technically and emotionally, but I am proud that Ava was completed and I couldn’t have done it without the help of my lovely team.
