Vers la forêt

Antonin Niclass

France /Suisse / 10' / 2026

Production company : Milos-Films SA, RTS Radio Télévision Suisse

Dans un studio de stop-motion silencieux, un petit singe ouvre les yeux. Tout autour de lui semble figé. Sur l'écran d'un ordinateur apparaît une jungle lumineuse, lointaine, presque vivante. Accompagné de deux compagnons, il entreprend d'en créer une à leur mesure, bricolée avec ce qu'ils ont sous la main. Une forêt née de leur imagination, la seule issue.

In a quiet stop-motion studio, a small monkey awakens. All is frozen. A glowing jungle flickers on-screen, almost alive. With two friends, it builds its own from scraps: an imagined forest, their only escape.
