Young Creatives u12 Award of Distinction
In the short and keen-witted mockumentary SNELL – Die Wahrheit kommt heraus (SNELL – The truth comes out), Gloria, Viktor, and Matteo show the consequences of the uncontrolled and short-sighted exploitation of natural resources. The three main characters—Peppa Pig, Spiderman, and the Astronaut—are roommates and passionate skiers. But they unfortunately discover that recreational opportunities and our natural surroundings should not be taken for granted.
When they lose their favorite ski area to the SNELL oil company, they embark on a search for alternatives. Some places, however, have no alternatives. Together with the commentaries of Professor Pig, the recordings of the events convey strategies and approaches for dealing with the challenges of the 21st century.
The three artists and producers worked autonomously on the story and the realization. For the production of the stop-motion stills, classic printing methods were used, but also simple drawings and live actors. The project reflects the current thoughts and concerns of the artists.
