Le Silence Sous L’ecorce

"Le silence sous l'ecorce" or "the silence beneath the bark" is one of the most notable works of the French animator, Joanna Lurie. It was Oscar-shortlisted for Best Animated Short in 2011 and was nominated and awarded in many festivals. It received the Jury Prize at the Annecy 2007 project competition.

The film shows the extraordinary encounters of curious little creatures living in the depths of a great forest with the strange and wonderful. The forest is wrapped in a great white blanket of snow and the little things get amused as they discover how beautiful and fascinating the white snow is.
