WINNER RIIFF AWARDS . PALM SPRINGS FESTIVAL AWARD 2009.

A 1940's B movie space drama with the naive style of that genre inspired by early concepts of the future, including the design of hand painted titles and digital background mattes of  spaceship and planet. The simplicity of perspex sleeping pods with bare filament lighting and tin foil, using a B52 style aluminium airliner exterior with a built section of landscape and matte paintings to create the spaceship and planet surface. A fantasy scifi world dreamt up by two children trying in their minds to escape their true reality that is revealed to being confined in a concentration camp.
