Director Ewa Smyk’s beautiful hand-drawn Nfts graduation animation Homebird tells the story of a young artist who has moved into the tense arena of the big city and, in turn, finds herself wistfully thinking back to memories of her home village. Smyk captures that nostalgic sense of longing through her hand-painted animation style, with each frame shifting and evolving like a fleeting memory.
