Selection
Anirudh Sah is an animator, illustrator, and visual storyteller hailing from the Himalayan foothills. His artworks are mostly a reflection of life in the hills and carry a strong flavor of the rich culture he has experienced there. 'Abloom' is his debut short film and also his graduation film from the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad, which was produced by Echostream Design Pvt. Ltd, Sikkim. In future, Anirudh wishes to work more towards the sustenance and conservation of the diminishing cultural heritage of the mountains by bringing the 'real' stories from the hills to a larger audience.
The film is based on personal experiences of the filmmaker and aspires to encourage people to open their hearts to their close ones and share each other’s burden, which also makes their bond stronger.
