The Little Other

2024 · 12 min

A quiet, strange animated short that feels like a riddle, asking you to sit with uncertainty rather than resolve it.

Overview
Two children are waiting to be born. One is an ordinary child, the other a trickster. How do we know which one is which? No one knows what will happen - the old rules are being torn down while the new ones have not been established yet.
