ABOUT
2026
In dié animasieprent ontdek ’n klipmesselaar, verteer deur afguns en ’n honger na erkenning, ’n blok marmer wat hy glo sy waarde as beeldhouer sal bewys. Maar wanneer sy pogings faal en sy ego aan skerwe lê, moet hy leer om nabootsing en ambisie te laat vaar omdat ware kuns – soos die self – nie deur geweld gemaak word nie, maar deur te laat gaan. 'n V&A met die filmmaker na afloop van die filmvertoning.

2026
A stonemason, consumed by envy and a hunger for recognition, discovers a block of marble that he believes will prove his worth as a sculptor. But when the stone resists his efforts, his ambition crumbles, forcing him to confront his ego and abandon imitation. By relinquishing control, he discovers that true art – like the self – is not forged through violence, but is found in surrender and the silent embrace of his own craft. The film is followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers.
