A Little Lovin' by Marie Paccou

A Little Lovin' by Marie Paccou animation film still

Ezra Pound (Letters to Joyce), Oscar Wilde (The Picture of Dorian Gray), and Charles Baudelaire (Les Fleurs du mal) are used here as the background for a flipbook music video clip directed by French animation artist Marie Paccou. Students from the EAM Leandre Cristofol (course professor: Carlos Porta) dance to the music of Paul Shephard, A Little Lovin' .

Marie Paccou has a penchant for simple yet stylish and engaging animation. Her students here create forms that need to transcend the harsh realities of the novels they occupy. Transformation is never a rush affair, and children become winged angels at a leisurely (but interesting) pace. It is evident that walking, flying, and animating is the best way to be together.

A Little Lovin' was first made for the ANIMAC 2018 festival; it has then traveled to Cinanima (Portugal), Hiroshima Animation Festival, and many international animation festivals.
