Through a child's imagination it tells the journey of a man who after falling prey to his fears, he must cross a strange world, a universe full of magic, where he will be confronted with his own fears and conflicts from the past and where he must find solutions for the future to discover his self-identity.

Jorge Morais ,independent filmmaker and artist hailing from Vigo, Spain. His artistic journey began at a young age, deeply rooted in various disciplines including drawing, painting, and sculpture, with a particular emphasis on sculpture, which he has naturally excelled in from early on.
At the forefront of the graffiti and mural painting scenes, Jorge developed a distinctive style that quickly garnered the attention of commercial brands, enabling him to undertake both artistic and advertising projects. His innovative approach soon led him beyond traditional canvases; he ventured into the realms of decoration and stage design for theatrical productions, successfully leading teams across Spain and Portugal before even completing his secondary education.
Pursuing his passion for Fine Arts, Jorge explored diverse professional avenues, intertwining his expertise in scenography, painting, and illustration throughout Galicia and Portugal. This exploration culminated in his involvement in various projects, art exhibitions, and advertising campaigns. As a founding leader of New Order Productions, a collective of emerging artists, he gained invaluable insights into artistic expression and team leadership—experiences that bolstered his confidence to delve into animation following his graduation from the Faculty of Fine Arts.
In 2010, Jorge made a significant mark in the animation industry with the release of The Painter of Skies, his inaugural animated short film, which served as the culmination of his Master’s degree in animation. The film achieved remarkable acclaim, being selected for over 300 festivals and winning 125 awards worldwide, establishing Jorge as a prominent figure in the field.
Following this milestone, he embarked on a series of enriching journeys across studios and production companies in Portugal, England, Italy, and ultimately Germany. This phase allowed him to diversify his skills and deepen his expertise in various aspects of production, particularly in animation and production design, thus shaping Jorge Morais into a multifaceted artist poised to continue making significant contributions to the world of film and art.
