Sinopses(1)
Inspired in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton and The Wizard of Oz, this is a story of people who devote their lives to books and books who return the favor. A poignant, humorous allegory about the curative powers of story told. (Guanajuato International Film Festival)

Rightful winner of the Academy Award for Best Short Film. This little film is as moving as can be and excels both visually and musically. In short, a lovely quarter of an hour spent with (not only) books that have soul.

In books there is beauty, that much we probably know. This film presents it to us in a somewhat intriguing way. On the one hand, it's quite standard because it derives from "The Wizard of Oz," but on the other, it's unconventional because it's connected with a hurricane that actually ravaged New Orleans. The connection with this 3D animation is certainly strong and interesting.
