My grandfather was a cherry tree

This is a movie-memory, narrated by a young boy about his views on life and death. It’s also a story about an unusual grandfather who could hear trees breathing, and believed that “a person can’t die if someone still loves him”.

“Il faro” Award for best animated film

The award consists in a €500 cash prize.

The circle of life and death is described with sensitivity, such as the hand it’s drawn by. The lyrical narration makes its core universally recognized.
