Metamorphosis

Bryn Wright
United States, 2023, 2 min.

In English.
This film is family friendly.

Metamorphosis is a metaphor for the challenges everyone experiences during adolescence... FROG wants to be stronger, AXOLOTL doesn't want to grow up, LADYBUG is going through "phases" and CATERPILLAR wants things to move more quickly. Written and animated by 12-year-old Bryn Wright, Metamorphosis is an upbeat and encouraging film for all ages - especially for youth in transition. Often the simplest solution is to "wait a while".
