INVOLVING WITH KIDS AT HOME - PART4 (Non Verbal Communication)

Winters mean, more indoor time my girl. And definitely no energy for a hour long conversation. So how about some non verbal communication and entertainment!!!!!!

ANIMATION, is one of my favourite medium of creative expression. “Introducing the great ISHU PATEL and his PARADISE”

We both enjoyed watching this short animation film, very engaging and absolutely brilliant. After this made Chaaru explain the concept of the movie, yup job well done :)

You should listen to Gheorghe Zamfir playing the pan flute/nai

This is a strange and fascinating film from Ishu Patel. Instead of the normal Western-style narrative, this animated short is one long piece of art--obviously inspired by Indian paintings of birds, people and the afterlife. All this gorgeous action unfolds slowly and is accompanied by the ethereal music of Gheorghe Zamfir--an internationally known (except in the US) panpipes legend whose music I have loved for years. Combined, it's an absolutely inspiring and breathtaking piece of art.

Because it was such a lovely film, it was nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film--which it lost to CHARADE. I don't know exactly how I feel about this, as I've seen both. CHARADE is funny and very clever but a rather superficial film. PARADISE is more a work of art and less a film for the public at large. Personally, I am happy either way, as they both were delights--too bad they couldn't give the award to both!!
