Short film from our Field Trip Series of motion and audio work.
Despite not having the vocabulary to adequately describe feelings of melancholy and depression, young students inevitably experience these states of emotion. Dark and cold mornings during a western fall season lead towards the elimination of many young students' favorite school subject: Recess. Instead of enjoying the relief of leaving the classroom for a brief moment of freedom out of doors, the pupils are trapped inside only to discover the checkers game is 3 pieces short and they'll have to wait until after school to burn the calories they've cached within their growing cells. Too many of these disruptions to a child's assumed schedule of physical activity can lead towards classroom mutiny.
