A Crab in the Pool
Un trou dans la poitrine
On a scorching summer day, two siblings are reminded of their mother.
At the local swimming pool, Zoé disappears into adolescent anxieties, while her younger brother Théo retreats into childhood imagination. But each must confront their shared trauma. Québec duo Alexandra Myotte and Jean-Sébastien Hamel craft this psychedelic 2D animation full of whimsical transitions, POV shots, dream logic and raw feelings.
