FRA/CZE/GER | 2021 | dir. Florence Miailhe, with Emilie Lan Dürr, Florence Miailhe, Maxime Gemin
A small village looted in darkness; a family forced to flee… The two oldest children, Kyona and Adriel are quickly separated from their parents facing the road of exile alone. They embark on a heroic journey which takes them from childhood to adolescence in search of shelter, peace and the hope of finding refuge and their family. Crossing a continent torn apart by war and migrant persecution, these courageous siblings survive incredible challenges, before reaching a new world, free at last. Written by Florence Miailhe and Marie Desplechin, The Crossing won Best Feature Film at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival in 2021.
