A Garden Within
“A Garden Within” combines stunning stylized 3D and 2D animation with a vibrant colour palette and imaginative character design. The film juxtaposes two distinct animation styles, beginning with a dark, looming 3D animated background with a 2D animated character; and contrasting it with a bright and whimsical 3D animation style. This emphasises the stark difference between the mundane and the extraordinary of queer awakening. With a mix of wonder, awe, and a touch of queer liminal, the film evokes a sense of childlike wonder, while conveying a poignant message of inner enlightenment and embracing the joys of queerness.
