WIND on Vimeo

WIND is an animated short about the daily life of people living in a windy area who seem helplessly exposed
to the weather. However, the inhabitants have learned to deal with their difficult living conditions.
The wind creates a natural system for living.

WIND zeigt den Alltag der Bewohner in einem sehr windigen Land. Scheinbar
schutzlos dem Wetter ausgesetzt schaffen sie es dennoch, ihren Alltag
einfallsreich zu meistern.
