Die globale Suche nach Bildung: Regisseur Nicolas Bianco-Levrin über Moon Girl und Follow Your True Love

Diesen Monat auf dem Planet Classroom Network Channel, Publikum kann screenen Mondmädchen, kuratiert von KIDS FIRST! Filmfest.

Kann eine französische Kakerlake die wahre Liebe finden??  In diesem herzlichen und entzückenden Zeichentrickfilm, Mondmädchen, Regie führen Nicolas Bianco-Levrin und Julie Rembauville, Ein winziges Insekt träumt davon, den Mond am Himmel zu erreichen (sein Mondmädchen) ihren Kuss fühlen und sich in ihrer Essenz aalen. He wakes up with Mondmädchen on his mind, Verwenden des strahlenden Satelliten als seine Führungskraft während der ganzen Nacht. Der Film untersucht den Kreislauf der Werbung zwischen diesen beiden unwahrscheinlichen Liebhabern, as the roach tirelessly attempts to reach the seemingly unattainable moon. Donning a red bowtie and his most beautiful shoes, the roach leaves his matchbox home in a Parisian basement and sets off on this romantic journey, dodging the swat of a cat and the glue of a spider web along the wayall in the name of romance. “In the end, it doesn’t matter whether or not he reaches the moon,” says Director Nicolas Bianco-Levrin. “What matters is the strength of his love.”

While no words are spoken, none are needed to keep the audience compelled with what a lone roach and the illuminating moon have to offer. The snazzy jazz playing throughout the film keeps the audience captivated while relying on real-life photography and hand-drawn visuals to tell the story. “There are a few movies that have used the mix between reality and animation, so halt Roger Rabbit oder Mary Poppins,” notes Bianco-Levrin. “In Mondmädchen, the idea was to take the real for the backgroundwhich always seems darker and harder than the imaginaryand include the imaginary within it. The insect appears elegant and transforms this reality.”

While a roach might not be everyone’s first choice of a protagonisthumanizing one and taking us through his quest to capture the heart of the moon (another unusual pick) allows room for viewers to open their hearts to the idea that love is not an experience limited to a specific creature, but rather something that binds us and brings us closer together.

Mondmädchen is an inspiring short film and it’s main takeaways will be different for each of us. “Just like this little bug, I hope that each person will continue to pursue their dreams, even if they seem unattainable or impossible,” says Bianco-Levrin.
