I seek to express that the worlds we create are permeated with suffering, but this suffering itself can be a doorway to transformation and greater understanding. Through an unconventional narrative and evocative imagery, this piece is intended to evoke a sense of mystery and questioning within the viewer while supporting this thematic premise.
Castle of Unknowing has shown internationally at film festivals such as the Ottawa International Animation Festival and Aesthetica Film Festival. It was a semi-finalist for the Student Academy Awards.
