Title:Tales of The Salt Water

A young man prepares to depart his family home under the last rays of the summer sun, which is more painful than it sounds. As each family member confronts the difficulty of parting ways and uttering the most bitter-sweet word, goodbye, the illustrated film takes on magical-realistic aspects. This animated short stands out due to its adept use of visual metaphor, which hits a chord with each viewer.
