ESSENCE

Amelia and Hugo know each other since they were kids. They spent their childhood together.

When they both turned 16, Amelia realises that she feels differently about Hugo. She likes him.

In order to tell him how she feels, she decides to use impressionist artists such as Matisse in order to create a metaphor that'll tell Hugo how much he means to her.

BEHIND THE SCENES

 

This behind the scenes focuses on the work between director and actors, how the actors worked with the script and also collaborating with a professional musician such as

Padraig O'Connor.

We talk in it about love and the power to express your feelings on a non-conventional way by using artists as reference.
