Wild Card | Australia
Directed by Laura Alica in collaboration with Drawn Together Studios
'Pipi Thay Too' (The grandmother Tree') is an animated film celebrating resilience, the power of identity, mystical encounters with ancestors, and the Karen and Karenni refugee experience.
Made out of hundreds of paintings by young refugee women, the short film was created when the Drawn Together Studio, ages 12-22, joined up with local artist, director and mentor Laura Alice - and started to explore and collaborate to create cutting-edge storytelling art, media and animation. The talented young artists are from a Karenni and Karen background, having come to Australia after their family fled the brutal genocidal regime in their homeland.
