City in the Fox

City in the Fox is a 2D animated project created at the Animationsinstitut at Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg in 2026. It is my graduation project as an animation director.

Synopsis:

A curious fox discovers a children’s book about planet Earth and becomes fascinated by the human world of knowledge. But as it devours more books and its imagination expands, the fox finds itself overwhelmed by thoughts it cannot fully understand.
