Howard
by Julia Pott
Category: Animation
Running Time: 3 mins 53 secs
Year: 2010

From Shooting People's 'Film of the Month'

Film Programmer for Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival, Laurent Crouzeix, comments: "A sensitive, imaginative and well-balanced animation, Howard has my winning vote. It offers a personal approach to the theme of the 'end of love', supported by original visual ideas. We get thrown into the emotional portrait of this apparently unlikely couple. The design and voice-over have a recognizable British feel about them. Both serve a beautiful, simple, yet careful construction of text and image up to the final sentence, in just under four minutes. Makes me want to see more from the author."
