Pigeon Train
Kunsthochschule der Medien in Cologne (International Exchange program)
About the Project
Pigeon Train', Inspired by CAFA's train soundscape, we crafted a tale of friendship in an alien city, where both struggled against persecution by the authorities, and found their own path. Blending paper cutouts, Blender, and 2D animation, we developed story, characters and environments in tandem, constantly refining our vision.
Synopsis
In the midst of a hostile city, a young boy forms an unlikely friendship with an alien. Both struggling against persecution by the authorities, try to navigate the chaotic city as they try to find their own path
The premise
A Martian arrives on planet Earth and conducts a study on human behavior, addressing topics such as love, human relationships, nature, technology, art, power and religions, the meaning of art, money, among others.
The title of this exchange pays homage to the novel of the same name, The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury, a work published in 1950 during the Cold War that narrates how humans invade Mars, fleeing a world on the brink of destruction and under the threat of nuclear conflict.
