Jarli
Director
Jarli is an adventurous Australian Aboriginal girl with dreams of heading to space. Jarli's first two ingenious attempts to fly into the stratosphere result in grounded aircraft, however, all is not lost.
Jasper
Director
Jasper is wild little girl who doesn’t come home when she’s supposed to and prefers a big sky over her head rather than a screen in front of her face. She doesn’t care what people think she should do or be. She just wants to fly - and she isn’t going to give up until she does. Jasper explores the idea that the dream of flight completely transcends gender.
A Cautionary Tail
Director
A little girl is born with a tail that expresses her emotions. As a child, her parents celebrate their daughter's uniqueness and her tail inspires magical make-believe adventures with her friends. As she grows up, however, the young woman faces pressure to fit in, and must choose between conformity and self-expression. An animated short film starring Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett, using a striking collage of 3D animated characters and hand-made miniature sets.
