A Reflection of One's Mind
Realised in 2014, this beautiful animated film, subtle and graceful, is the final project year-end of a Japanese student of University of Fine Arts Tama of Tokyo : Kohei Nakaya. The choice of a silent narrative, driven by a soft and introspective music of Claude Debussy, lets you enjoy all the finesse of this teenager malaise. Lightweight and touching, A reflection of one's mind is very pleasant. The impressive maturity and control of the graphic writing, lets we expected great things for Kouhei Nakaya and his future audience. (Source: Youtube)
