The strange story of a man, a dog and a crow lost in a snowscape.
A story of survivors.
This is the new art work carried out by Paolo Bonfiglio after "MATER", the animation film
which has brought him all over Europe through the most interesting festivals and art
galleries. "mor tale" is the second chapter of a series of films made in collaboration with
the english musician Mick Harris, who underlines the hurtful rithm of the walking along the
mortal river.
In this second chapter there is also something sick in the human being.
A sentimental relationship with the "Beast", where life and death are blended in an
unspeakable dreadful unicum.
The art/cinema by Paolo Bonfiglio is both the horror outside his genre and the
enchantement, dualism deep inside the human heart.
