    A young girl lives all by herself in a village in the middle of the ocean. With only the gulls, the wind and the waves for company, she writes in her journal each day. She dreams that the pages from her book could be a sail, or that her broom could be an oar, anything to terminate her solitude. When something dark and menacing arrives, perhaps things will change? Then again... I liked the sketch style of this animation and the intricacies of the delicate touches to her (overlarge) head and it's facial expressions as this short feature builds to epitomise the powerful nature of senses of loneliness and isolation. That feeling that you don't exist, or that nobody knows or cares about you, emanates quite powerfully from this I felt - intended or not.

A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventures

Born on a Baja, California beach in 1959, new hatchling Sammy races across the beach to the ocean while avoiding being caught by seagulls and crabs. Thus begins Sammy's incredible fifty-year ocean journey where he overcomes obstacles, both natural and man-made, while trying to fulfill his dream of travelling around the world. Along the way he meets his best friend, a fellow turtle named Ray, and never forgets about Shelly, a turtle he saved that first day on the beach and the one he's always loved.
