Director Statement
With Patrice Seiler, we wanted to create the world of Mr Nostoc using solely waste and salvaged material. We wanted to put those old, overlooked objects into the spotlights, and tell a story with them.
Stop motion animation is not only about making objects move. It is about bringing them to life, giving them a soul. There’s something fascinating about this process. This is alchemy.
